Checkout problem with symlinks and locks

Hello again.

i have the following file structure

/trunk/cgi-bin/
...
lrwxrwxrwx 1 dj users 12 May 25 12:43 /trunk/cgi-bin/index-demo-
en.pl -> index-src.pl
-r-xr-xr-x 1 dj users 1544 May 25 12:43 /trunk/cgi-bin/index.pl
-r-xr-xr-x 1 dj users 1431 May 25 12:43 /trunk/cgi-bin/index-src.pl
....

all files have set "svn:needs-lock"

If i checkout this repository to a new user, i got en error

svn: In directory '/trunk/cgi-bin'
svn: Can't change read-write perms of file '/trunk/cgi-bin/index-demo-
en.pl': No such file or directory
...
lrwxrwxrwx 1 dj users 12 May 25 12:43 /trunk/cgi-bin/index-demo-
en.pl -> index-src.pl
-r-xr-xr-x 1 dj users 1544 May 25 12:43 /trunk/cgi-bin/index.pl

it seems that subversion want to change the permission on the
symlinks, but the source file was not loaded yet, so the checkout abort.

So no new developer could checkout the repository. I think that is a
big bug.

Can anybody confirm that?

Daniel
