copy/remove weirdness

It seems I continue to be unable to send mail to
users@subversion.tigris.org. I'm sorry for forward this mail here, but I
think there are some bugs uncovered in it.

attached mail follows:

Sorry to lump several issues into one mail, but I have to be getting to
bed.

I can't seem to copy removed files without using a URL:

$ svn rm a.txt
D a.txt
$ svn ci
Deleting a.txt
 
Committed revision 2.
$ svn cp -r PREV a.txt a.txt
svn: 'a.txt' is not under version control
$ svn cp -r 1 a.txt .
svn: 'a.txt' is not under version control
$ svn cp -r 1 file:///home/hosehead/repo/a.txt .
$ ls
a.txt

--- Separate issue ---

Copying using some symbolic revision names gives me misleading error
messages:

$ svn cp -r PREV file:///home/hosehead/repo/a.txt .
svn: A path under version control is needed for this operation
$ svn cp -r COMMITTED file:///home/hosehead/repo/a.txt c.txt
svn: A path under version control is needed for this operation

Using numeric values I get:
$ svn cp -r 4 file:///home/hosehead/repo/a.txt c.txt
svn: Path 'file:///home/hosehead/repo/a.txt' not found in revision '4'
$ svn cp -r 3 file:///home/hosehead/repo/a.txt c.txt
[succeeds]
