It's not a workaround, peg revisions are the proper syntax.

If you type

    svn checkout -rX URL

That's equivalent to typing

    svn checkout -rX URL@HEAD

But if URL@HEAD doesn't exist, you get the error you're seeing.

What you want to type is

    svn checkout URL@X

Read about peg revisions in the book:
