I've been having this problem as well. I have my /tmp symlinked
elsewhere just like you do:

> qa% ls -l /tmp
> lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 11 13 Feb 09:26 /tmp -> private/tmp

$ ls -ld /tmp
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Jan 15 14:30 /tmp -> ./export/tmp

It only seems to occur when a file is checked in from a child
directory of the root of the working directory. For instance, if I
update a script in ~/bin, and then check in my homedir:

  svn: Error creating dir '/tmp' (path exists)
  svn: Can't open file '/tmp/svnlook.1/bin/backup-mail': \
                                       No such file or directory
