First, This should have been posted to the Subclipse mailing list, not the
general SVN list.

But, since you're here, the "Compare with HEAD Revision" and the revision
number entry are mutually exclusive. If you are entering a specific
revision, then you don't want to select the "Compare with HEAD Revision"
checkbox.
