svnadmin load fails on new repos - file already exists

Hi,

I am trying to 'svnadmin load' a dumpfile into a
newly created repository, but each time I try it
stops at the same point with the same message:

bash-2.02$ svnadmin create svn-load --fs-type=fsfs
bash-2.02$ svnadmin load svn-load < Tues-3/dump-file

***--- BEGIN SNIP

<<< Started new transaction, based on original revision 19372
       * adding path : trunk/shenick/shenick/diversifEye/main/Makefile ...
done.

------- Committed revision 19372 >>>

<<< Started new transaction, based on original revision 19373
       * editing path : trunk/shenick/shenick/diversifEye/main/Makefile ...
done.

------- Committed revision 19373 >>>

<<< Started new transaction, based on original revision 19374
       * adding path :
trunk/shenick/shenick/diversifEye/main/cpp/bcast/Makefile ... done.
       * adding path : trunk/shenick/shenick/diversifEye/main/Makefile ...

svn: File already exists: filesystem '/svn-load/db',
transaction '19373-1', path
'trunk/shenick/shenick/diversifEye/main/Makefile'

***---END SNIP

It looks like #19372 adds the Makefile (ok), #19373 edits it (ok)
but then '19374' tries to 'add' it again and fails.
Is this correct behaviour (2 adds)?

The dumpfile was created from cvs2svn, so it could be a problem there;
I tried their mailing list, but nobody seemed to recognise it.
On the other hand I did see some old messages on the svn archives on
haxx.se
which were similar to this, but there didn't seem to be an answer?

I would greatly appreciate any suggestions - even just a pointer
as to whether you think it is likely to be an svn issue or cvs2svn
would help me to know where to start looking!

For what it's worth I am running
- Win2K
- CVSNT 2.0.58d
- Python 2.4
- Subversion 1.1.3

Thanks,
Richard.
