SVN: can not delete erroneous property

Hello,

I have a property name with a leading space. I can not get rid of it.

(I have a swedish installation. I've tried to translate the output)

Proplist gives:
C:\wc>svn proplist mydoc.doc
Properties for "mydoc.doc":
   svn:needs-lock
  svn:needs-lock
  svn:mime-type

The second needs-lock is the result from trying to set the property
correctly. I have no idea how the first was entered into the
repository. We use the 1.4.5 client and 1.4.4 server.

I think this gives the following error when trying to open the
document via TortoiseSvn Show Log (the problem was not fixed by
changing according to
http://svn.haxx.se/users/archive-2004-01/0980.shtml, and other
documents can be opened this way):
PROPFIND request failed on
'/repos/myrepo/!svn/bc/9594/myproj/trunk/docs/mydoc.doc'PROPFIND of
'/repos/myrepo/!svn/bc/9594/myproj/trunk/docs/mydoc.doc': 207
Multi-Status (http://myrepo_svn)

This is what I've been trying to do:
C:\wc>svn propdel svn:needs-lock mydoc.doc
The property "svn:needs-lock" deleted from "mydoc.doc".

C:\wc>svn proplist mydoc.doc
Properties for "mydoc.doc":
  svn:mime-type

C:\wc>svn ci -m "Deleting erroneous property" ..\wc
Sends mydoc.doc
