The full path name does indeed exist in HEAD so if that's the default
peg revision, then I guess it should work. Also, the svn command line
client has no problem checking out this folder using the given revision,
i.e.:

  svn checkout -r 1430
http://dev.eclipse.org/svnroot/stp/org.eclipse.stp.b2j/trunk/features/org.eclipse.stp.b2j.feature

works just fine.

I think that Subclipse (or the layers beneath) somehow gets confused by
the fact that the revision 1430 of the parent folder doesn't exist.
Parent folders have moved around a bit in revisions after 1430.

Show history does show the 1430 version (with an asterisk to indicate
that it is current) for the given folder.
