It seems a bit wrong for me to be moderating my own message...

This discussion is getting quite long, for such a small question...
hopefully I can help wind it up.
The WC-format is the first line in the .svn/entries file, at least for
1.4 and up - the 10 in the one you posted.
According to
http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/tools/client-side/change-svn-wc-format.py
:
8 is 1.4, 9 is 1.5, 10 is 1.6 and 11 is 1.7.
Version 9 also had the file .svn/format, which might be what you
remember - that is no longer in version 10.
