Blame caused "tmpfile changed unexpectedly during diff" message

Hi,
 
We've just run into an issue where the blame fails with one of our files
(and only that file) in our repository. We do this:

1. Right-click the file / TortoiseSVN / Blame.
2. Click OK.
3. Wait for the "Please wait - this can take several minutes.
Seriously! Getting file info..." to complete.
4. A dialog pops up saying the file unexpectedly changed.

The dialog looks like:

        TortoiseSVN
        The file 'C:\DOCUME~1\mabbott\LOCALS~1\Temp/tmp.4.tmp' changed
unexpectedly
        during diff
        OK

I just binary chopped through the revisions to see whether a particular
revision caused the problem. It seems that if I blame from revision
1724 in our repository it still breaks. But if I blame from 1725 it
works fine. Both revisions seem completely fine, nothing strange about
the commits.
 
If I "svn blame" the file on the command line it works fine.
 
I'm doing this with:

        TortoiseSVN 1.5.5, Build 14361 - 32 Bit , 2008/10/24 18:06:34
        Subversion 1.5.4,
        apr 1.2.12
        apr-utils 1.2.12
        berkeley db 4.4.20
        neon 0.28.3
        OpenSSL 0.9.8i 15 Sep 2008
        zlib 1.2.3

Is there anything else I can do to diagnose what's going on?
 
Thanks,
- Mab
