Andrew,
the 'normal' thing is not to use copy, but merge.
If the offending revision is X, then this should help you (assuming a
working copy without manual changes):
1. svn up
2. svn merge -r X:(X-1) . .
3. svn ci
Note the two dots with a space in-between in step two.
The above simply merges the change of revision X backwards.
I don't know about the svn cleanup things you mention. As far as I know, it
is recursive.
