I also tried to commit the renamed files from Windows Exploder/TortoiseSVN
-- *SAME* *PROBLEM*.

A point I forgot to mention is that we upgraded Subversion & ToitoiseSVN
clients about 10 days ago. This is the first renaming of files that I've
done since then. Versions now are:
Subversion command-line client, version 1.2.3.

TortoiseSVN 1.2.6, Build 4786 - 32 Bit
Subversion 1.2.3,
apr 0.9.6
apr-iconv 0.9.5
apr-utils 0.9.6
berkeley db 4.3.28
neon 0.24.7
OpenSSL 0.9.8a 11 Oct 2005
zlib 1.2.3

I've been using these cygwin/bash/scripts (see below) FOR NEARLY A YEAR.
Everything *perfect* till now.

Also, I've renamed a handful of the several hundred files in the projects
over the last year or so: all OK.

I *WORKED* *AROUND* by the method already described:
>> "I could only fix this by 'Tortoise Revert' on these two files, then
>> 'Tortoise Deleting' them, and 'Tortoise Add'ing them(the new ones)."

To repeat: The ToitoiseSVN Rename and either the subversion commit or
*TortoiseSVN* commit should have worked. Neither subversion nor Tortoise
commits worked.

The scripts I use are shown below. Note the use of 'cd':
./svn_update.sh:
--------------------------------
#!/bin/bash -x

# 20051121 agl Added xad.
# 20050701 AGL Original version.

              svn update
cd libs_all ; svn update
cd ../ac1 ; svn update
cd ../ac2 ; svn update
cd ../ac3 ; svn update
cd ../xad ; svn update
cd ../bios ; svn update
cd ../srt ; svn update
--------------------------------
./svn_commit.sh:
--------------------------------
#!/bin/bash

# 20051121 agl Added xad.
# 20050707 AGL Added --force-log option, since svn_commit.txt is now a
versioned file.
# 20050706 AGL Moved message from here to file svn_commit.txt.
# 20050701 AGL Original version.

if [ -f svn_commit.txt ] ; then

echo cat svn_commit.txt
     cat svn_commit.txt

              svn commit --force-log -F svn_commit.txt
cd libs_all ; svn commit --force-log -F ../svn_commit.txt
cd ../ac1 ; svn commit --force-log -F ../svn_commit.txt
cd ../ac2 ; svn commit --force-log -F ../svn_commit.txt
cd ../ac3 ; svn commit --force-log -F ../svn_commit.txt
cd ../xad ; svn commit --force-log -F ../svn_commit.txt
cd ../bios ; svn commit --force-log -F ../svn_commit.txt
cd ../srt ; svn commit --force-log -F ../svn_commit.txt

else

echo File svn_commit.txt, containing the commit message, must exist for
this command to work.

I think the issue is that the path name in TortoiseSVN is something like 
"D:\CompanyData\ProjDev\svn\PSPS", while the CygWin path is something like 
"D:/CompanyData/ProjDev/svn/PSPS". The filename handling for CygWin is 
always an issue, as is the handling of end-of-line characters.
