which means find the folder called 'trunk' in the current revision, go back
to revision 1000 and list its contents. This command is shorthand for:

    svn ls -r 1000 http://svn/MyRepro/trunk@HEAD

which means find the folder called 'trunk/old_dir' in the current revision
then go back to revision 1000. Since that folder no longer exists the
command fails.

The command:

   svn export -r 1000 http://svn/MyRepro/trunk/old_dir/@1000

means find the folder called 'trunk/old_dir' in revision 1000, then go to
revision 1000 and export it.

Remember that different objects may have had the same names at different
times in your repository.
