This is definitely a bug, and a regression in 1.9.

I did the following test:

1. On a Debian/unstable machine (which has Subversion 1.9.7 r1800392),
I created a format 3 FSFS repository and loaded the dump.

2. I tested the issue:

cventin:~> svn ls -r99808 file:///home/vlefevre/private/svn-tmp/perso/tcl/fidelite_at_99808
fidelite

cventin:~> svn ls -r99809 file:///home/vlefevre/private/svn-tmp/perso/tcl/fidelite_at_99809
fidelite

cventin:~> svn ls -r99808 file:///home/vlefevre/private/svn-tmp/perso/tcl/fidelite_at_99809
svn: E160016: Failure opening '/perso/tcl/fidelite'
svn: E160016: '/perso/tcl' is not a directory in filesystem '99759db8-4ec0-0310-8bf9-df86780d22d8'

cventin:~> svn ls -r99809 file:///home/vlefevre/private/svn-tmp/perso/tcl/fidelite_at_99808
svn: E160016: Failure opening '/perso/tcl/fidelite'
svn: E160016: '/perso/tcl' is not a directory in filesystem '99759db8-4ec0-0310-8bf9-df86780d22d8'

So, this is buggy.

3. I copied the repository to a Debian/jessie machine (which has
Subversion 1.8.10 r1615264).

4. I tested the issue on this machine:

tomate:~> svn ls -r99808 file:///home/vlefevre/private/svn-tmp/perso/tcl/fidelite_at_99808
fidelite

tomate:~> svn ls -r99809 file:///home/vlefevre/private/svn-tmp/perso/tcl/fidelite_at_99809
fidelite

tomate:~> svn ls -r99808 file:///home/vlefevre/private/svn-tmp/perso/tcl/fidelite_at_99809
fidelite

tomate:~> svn ls -r99809 file:///home/vlefevre/private/svn-tmp/perso/tcl/fidelite_at_99808
fidelite

Everything is fine with the old version.
