Bug: svn:externals property not working correctly with -r option

In my repository, I have a folder with an svn:externals property, to
import another folder from within the same repository. I am using the
-r option to specify the revision.

This was working fine, until I deleted the folder from the head
revision. Now, when I update the folder with the externals property,
the external fails and reports that the file is not found at the head
revision number.

I expected the externals to check out the folder from the revision
specified, but instead it does not check out anything. Using the
repository browser, I can verify that the path specified in the
externals tag does exist at the revision specified in my externals tag.

I am using version 1.6.16.21511 (64bit version), but have reproduced the
problem on another computer running the 32bit version as well.
