Sure it does not, because your working copy is already broken. Disable
that option and then do a fresh checkout.

The bug is said to be fixed in the current svn trunk, and that trunk
also contains code to fix the problem in existing working copies (as a
side effect of svn cleanup). But svn 1.1.3 has that bug, with no easy
way to fix an already existing working copy.

The bug is: When you set "Use commit times", the checkout command puts
the current (checkout) time into the .svn/entries file but sets your
files' time stamp to the commit time. This forces subversion to always
scan the complete file because the time stamps in the entries file do
not match your files' time stamp.
