There's no bug here. Read about peg revisions in chapter 7 of the book:

    http://svnbook.red-bean.com/nightly/en/svn.advanced.pegrevs.html

What you're typing in step 2 is equivalent to

    svn co -r50 .../foo/bar@421

And of course, that path doesn't exist in r421. What you really want
to type is

    svn co .../foo/bar@50
