I think the OP means that the externals are to be updated to a revision
that was appropriate at the time rev. 22700 was created; he did not mean to
reuse the 22700 as a rev no for the externals.

Now, that info is probably not available for externals that were not linked
to an explicit revision at that time, but for fixed externals it could be
possible. The question remains if this is a feasible option to provide and
if it requires additional SVN support to implement this.

IIRC, there is an option when tagging/branching to freeze externals
pointing to HEAD to a fixed revision? Maybe the OP can use that to achieve
his goal?
