   Ok.

   What would have been the "proper" way to fix this so I can sort it out if/when it next
happens?

   This machine is not virus-scanning, and does not run ZoneAlarm, or anything other than
the WinXPsp2 firewall.

   The problem seems to be that after a check-in of a file by user A, a subsequent attempt
to check-in a new change to that file by user A fails, claiming that the file is not up to
date. No other user has checked in anything to the same file in the interim. The working
copy directory _has_ been svn updated.

   I don't know what other circumstantial data you might need, I posted everything that
seemed relevant.
