"Checksum mismatch while reading representation"

Hi folks,
 
is there any way to recover from "Checksum mismatch while reading representation" within a known revision?
Since a workmate had checked in rev. 763 last Friday we are no more able to checkout/export the affected directory due to the above error.
Unfortunately the crash occured after several other commits since the Thursday backup.
As far as I understand there is a difference between the MD5 digest which svnserve computed during checkin against the digest computed from the stored data while trying to checkout.
Given that, I wondered if it were possible to either 1. "fake" the digest in order to at least be able to checkout rev. 763 and commit the correct contents again or 2. patch the revision file such that it reflects the correct contents (which in turn would yield the stored digest).
svnadmin does not seem to be able to do the trick.
 
Hope this will not turn out to be an RTFM question :-)
 
 
TIA and best regards,
 
Thomas
