svn 1.7.x no longer works for ci (or add) though a link

Hi, Subversion 1.7.x appears to no longer support commit (or add) of a
file referenced through a symbolic link. Was this change intended or
should it still work like it did with v1.6.x?

Examples for 1.7.x failing and 1.6.x working shown below.

Thanks,

- Mark
