Bug in svnadmin setrevprop?

I was trying to set a revprop (svn:author) on a range of revisions in a
repo. It seems that despite the help text, it doesn't work.

$ svnadmin --version
svnadmin, version 1.6.6 (r40053)
   compiled Nov 2 2009, 22:39:33

$ svnadmin help setrevprop
setrevprop: usage: svnadmin setrevprop REPOS_PATH -r REVISION NAME FILE
     {snip}
Valid options:
  -r [--revision] ARG : specify revision number ARG (or X:Y range)

$ svnadmin setrevprop repo/ -r 1:2 svn:author message.txt
svnadmin: Try 'svnadmin help' for more info
svnadmin: Only one revision allowed

So the help says I can use a range, but range syntax isn't actually
accepted. Is this a known bug, or something that should be filed (or, of
course, a PEBKAC problem)?
