Those are markers that signal a conflict in a merge operation. So, either you
didn't read Subversion's output telling you there is a conflict with you
local changes or somebody else ignored that information and even checked in
the faulty merge including the conflict markers.

I don't believe that the same revision suddenly changed. If these markers were
present in the revision, they will still be there. If they were generated
locally in order to notify you of conflicting changes that's a different
issue.
It's not a bug but a feature.
