You need to use some tool that modifies history. (Which tool? Look for
svndumptool/2/3, but I don't follow closely the latest recommendations for
this task.) Changing a property on a node (file or directory) is not
fundamentally different from changing the textual contents of a file.

Maybe we should relax the validation to not validate svn:log when it is
a node property (as opposed to a revision property). If anyone wants to
pursue this, contact dev@ please.
