Yes, you will still have to "throw out" that first entry, if it's
prior to that timestamp. That's just how it's implemented.

I don't understand why one would be tempted to think that asking for a
log of a single point in time would return the log for a range of
times. If you want a whole day, ask for the logs for a whole day, not
one point in time during that day.
What you're describing is that when you request the log for revision
4, you'd expect to get the logs for revisions 3 through 6. Subversion
gives you what you ask for.
