For other developers looking at this issue:
r31692 (which was merged to 1.5.x in r31799) is the only change between
1.5.0 and 1.5.1 in neon that can explain the regression starting in 1.5.1.
It touches precisely the code Karl quotes in his mail.

Fix issue #2939 over ra_neon: bogus existence check.
See reproduction recipe in the issue to verify this fix -- it uses
svnmucc. Scenario can't be tested using the normal 'svn' client,
since it involves doing a directory replacement within a single
transaction. svnmucc and gvn can create the scenario, however,
resulting is a revision which (until now) couldn't be svnsync'd over
http!
* subversion/libsvn_ra_neon/commit.c (commit_add_file):
do PROPFIND existence check on the *working* url (i.e. the path
within the transaction), not the public url (which the path in HEAD).

I would guess that reverting this change will bring us back to the old
behavior, but it will break issue #2939.
Karl's diagnosis continues in mod_dav_svn, but the comment above this block
of code says:
/* If the parent directory existed before this commit then there may be a
file with this URL already. We need to ensure such a file does not
exist, which we do by attempting a PROPFIND. Of course, a
PROPFIND *should* succeed if this "add" is actually the second
half of a "replace".
[....]
Looking at this neon change, it looks like it starts checking whether the
file exists in the transaction and stops checking whether it exists before
the commit. (I'm trying to understand what the consequences are, but the old
behavior matches what I would expect reading the comments around this code).
The serf change for the same issue is completely different than the neon
version. (I don't think r31695 needs further investigation)
