When I try it the base files are created:

$ svn cp file://`pwd`/repo/foo wc/foo3
A wc/foo3/bar
Checked out revision 2.
A wc/foo3

$ svn st wc
A + wc/foo3

$ ls wc/foo3/.svn-prop-base wc/foo3/.svn/text-base
wc/foo3/.svn/prop-base:
bar.svn-base

wc/foo3/.svn/text-base:
bar.svn-base

This is the correct behaviour. New files don't exist in the
repository so they have no text or prop base. (That's how it works at
the moment, I suppose it may be possible to simplify the code by
adding empty text and prop bases so that the base files always exist.)

This is correct.
