Unsupported special file type

Hello,

I was using svn 1.1.0-rc1 to play with symlinks et upgraded recently to
1.1.0-rc2. But today I performed a fresh check out and saw svn failing with
the following message :

svn: Unsupported special file type 'MODE'

This occured while processing a directory containing one symlink. I should add
that the target file was not yet checked out by svn. I performed this action
through svnserve with a svn:// URL. I tried a "svnserve verify" on the
repository but saw no alerts. I've switched back to 1.1.0-rc1 but the error
was still there. I guess the repository has a been altered in such a way that
the server cannot manage the versioned symlinks anymore.

SVN gurus, what is wrong there ?

Guillaume
