Also, any chance you have multiple refs with "trunk" in the basename?
 git rev-parse --symbolic --all | grep '/trunk'

It could be a backwards compatibility issue with git svn looking in multiple places for trunk.

With Adam's commit, it'll try $GIT_DIR/svn/refs/remotes/trunk/* first Then it'll try $GIT_DIR/svn/trunk/* as a fallback.
