     ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
this seems to tell me the root of the damaged working copy.

Thank you Kontantin,
this was the clue I needed: it was enough to delete
the wom directory and svn update its parent to restore (only) the
external from the repository. I did not have to
refetch the complete working copy.

And now I see that svn cleanup *has* told me, which database was
corrupt. To me it was not obvious which svn cleanup invocation
deals with which .svn directory.
