207 Multi-Status error checking out WebKit repository on Windows

Hello,

The WebKit project uses Subversion for version control and we are
facing a problem with fresh checkouts of the repository on Windows
with Subversion 1.6.6 (as well as earlier versions -- I've also tried
1.6.1). The reported error is with a specific file:

svn: PROPFIND of
'/repository/webkit/!svn/bc/19963/trunk/LayoutTests/fast/xpath/4XPath/Core/test.js':
207 Multi-Status (http://svn.webkit.org)

The WebKit project maintainers aren't sure what changed with this
particular file to cause this error to start occurring. I was only
able to get past it by copying the .svn directory for this
subdirectory from another Windows machine (where the checkout predated
the problematic changes to this file) and then continuing the
checkout.

Is this a known issue? Can you reproduce it by checking out the
repository (see http://webkit.org/building/checkout.html) with the
current (non-Cygwin) Subversion binaries?

Thanks,

-Ken
