It's usually helpful if you can replicate the problem with the svn
commandline client. Because we know more about that here than about TSVN.

I wonder if this is a wcprops-out-of-date bug.

Please show the output of:
$ svn info bla.tex
$ cat .svn/wcprops/bla.tex.svn-work

If you don't have a commandline client with which to run svn info, then
please consider downloading one, but for now, cut-n-paste the <entry ... />
tag which refers to bla.tex from .svn/entries.

1.0.0 ? That's rather old. You do know there have been security releases
since then? And quite a lot of bugfixes too?

BTW, I'm on IRC in #svn quite a lot - you may want to respond that way.
