Behavior when revision dates are out-of-order

I'd like to migrate a project from CVS to Subversion. However, I do not
want to convert the whole repository, but only a part of it and later
convert the remaining parts and load them via "svnadmin load".

Now I'm seeing the problem that the revision numbers will be
chronologically out of order, which I imagine might cause trouble when
using the "-r {DATE}" syntax.

Is Subversion's behavior in any way predictable in this regard? I.e.,
will it always choose the lowest or highest possible revision number?
If not, is there any way to work around this problem?
