missing revisions on checkout or update

I'm having a very serious issue where if I do a checkout of my code to a new
directory, I am getting an old revision which is missing several files and
directories I had added. I spent some time worried since several hours of
development were missing.

I was able to locate a checkout on my machine at 229 having an important
directory that was missing.

If I do:
svn co file:///path/to/my/project

it lists the files and then states:
Checked out revision 166.

If I do:
> svn update -r head
At revision 166.

But if I do:
> svn update -r 229

all of my missing files in my missing directory are now present and it
states:
Updated to revision 229.

I just updated subversion to version 1.4.6 on my gentoo amd64 machine. I
had not worked with this repository for several months.

Any ideas how this happened? How can I make the head point to the latest
version?

Thanks for your help,

Juan
