Question on diff on "non-existant" files

Hi all, I'm wondering why I can't retrieve a log of diff on file versions
that don't exist in my branch.

e.g.

Say I branch at rev 125, if I do log on the whole directory maybe I see a
change I want to examine.

Revision 73: Added some change I'm interested in

Revision 72: Version prior to the change.

If I try to get a log or diff on these specific versions I get a 404 not
found error.

Maybe I'm mad but this seems like a reasonable request to me, having to go
locate the

actual real branch where the change was made and diff/log by URL seems a
little burden-some.

Okay it's not outrageous, but it's more typing :-)

What have I missed?

(BTW this is of course with the commandline "svn" on windows v0.25 )

Cheers,
