I'm absolutely sure. I'm able to reproduce it with the following recipe:

1) Checkout some project
2) Edit your Subversion 'config' file, adding:
        *.foo = svn:mime-type:text/plain
(note wrong syntax for the property value)
3) Create an empty.foo file in your working copy
4) Ask TortoiseSVN to Add this file (it will set an invalid property
thanks to the typo in the 'config' file)
5) Ask TortoiseSVN to Commit
6) Type a log message.
7) Subversion rejects the commit, "At least one propety change failed;
repository is unchanged"
8) Ask TortoiseSVN to Commit the file again
9) Click Recent Messages
10) The log message typed in 6) is not there.

Don't forget to remove the (invalid) config added in step 2.

HTH,
Daniel Serodio
