checkout files from deleted branch

I've run into what i think is a bug... The development shop where I
work uses svn for it's developement process. And as std dev practice
here we use branches for development of new idea's that may or may not
go into the product. At the same time we delete these branches when the
feature is either discarded or moved into the trunk.

Here's where this gets tricky, the QA dept. sometimes needs to checkout
these deleted branches to run profiling on them. Some of people that
are running svn 1.1.1 can do this by using the -r option with a revision
before the delete. Others running 1.2.x cannot do this they get a
"missing file at revision Y" where y is the current revision.

Has anybody elese noticed this/ can confirm it for me?
