de-reference links in svn dump?

I have a problem where I need to dump a particular directory and reload it
into another repository.

The problem is that some contents of that directory were copied from elsewhere
(svn cp, the cheap copy), and svndumpfilter fails if I only include it (the
documentation warns about it).

For example:
old-repos/dir1/foo
old-repos/dir2/foo <- copied from dir1
old-repos/dir2/bar
...

I want do dump only dir2 and import it into the new repo. I don't want dir1 in
the new repo.

Is there a way to overcome this? For example, somehow make svndumpfilter
de-reference this hard link that was created by "svn cp".
