strange behavior in svn co

I recently tried to check out an old version of a directory from my
repository and found that I couldn't. Months ago I deleted this
directory using svn del, so I looked up which revision it was still
around in and then attempted to do an svn co --revision=X. Instead of
checking out the directory it complains about not being able to find it
in the head revision.

Interestingly, I can create an empty directory in the repository at the
same path, check out the now empty directory, then "update" back to the
revision I want. Thinking this is a bug.

I've attached a bash script that reproduces the simplest case I could
come up with. Check it for exact details.
