I'd like to know if the \015 (LF) is part of the pathname in the
original repository. Can you check that?

Can you compare the data.dump file on the old/new server, to make sure
nothing changed its line endings en route? (try SHA-1 or something else
that doesn't ignore whitespace)

How exactly did you run svndumpfilter? Try excluding one of the parents
of this path.
