Hmm, it works for me, I've been adding and removing branches like this for months, but my .git/config is slightly different:

[svn-remote "svn"]
        url = svn://example.org
        fetch = project/trunk:refs/remotes/svn/trunk
        fetch = project/branches/topic:refs/remotes/svn/topic
I don't know if this difference is important, though...
