svn switch -r BASE does not work

Hi all,

I have recently upgraded from a really ancient version (1.4.0) to the
latest ubuntu release (jaunty) which has subversion 1.5.4. There I
found, what I believe to be a bug in the command line client which I
have since confirmed to exist in svn 1.6.5 as well.

In short -r BASE, -r COMMITTED etc don't work while -r <number> does. At
least for the switch command.

I have attached a shell script to reproduce the problem.

Please include me in responses, as I am not subscribed to the mailing
list.

Cheers,

Seb
