I've tried, but I can't reproduce this problem with a clean repository
(see transcript below).

There must be something special with your repository or working copy.
Maybe your working copy is constructed in a special way, for instance
a sparse working copy, or with switched subtrees or something like
that? Or perhaps your ~/SVN/Trunk is, through the use of symlinks,
part of two different working copies?

I think you'll have to narrow this down to something reproducible, or
give additional details about your repository and working copy, before
anyone will be able to help. I suggest you first examine your current
working copy to see if there is anything special about it (with 'svn
info' etc). And then try to reproduce it in a completely new working
copy (make a new checkout of the same part of the repository, and
trying the same steps). If you can reproduce it that way, that's
already a good step forward. Next thing is to reproduce it from
scratch with a completely new repository (like I tried in the
transcript below).

Here's what I tried (with svn built from trunk_at_1513012):

[[[
C:\Temp\test>svnadmin create repos

C:\Temp\test>svn co file:///c:/temp/test/repos wc
Checked out revision 0.

C:\Temp\test>cd wc

C:\Temp\test\wc>svn mkdir --parents -m"creating dirs"
file:///c:/temp/test/repos/Trunk/Lettus/lbin

Committed revision 1.

C:\Temp\test\wc>svn up
Updating '.':
A Trunk
A Trunk\Lettus
A Trunk\Lettus\lbin
Updated to revision 1.

C:\Temp\test\wc>cd Trunk\Lettus\lbin

C:\Temp\test\wc\Trunk\Lettus\lbin>echo line1 > test.txt

C:\Temp\test\wc\Trunk\Lettus\lbin>svn add test.txt
A test.txt

C:\Temp\test\wc\Trunk\Lettus\lbin>svn ci -m"adding test file"
Adding test.txt
Transmitting file data .
Committed revision 2.

C:\Temp\test\wc\Trunk\Lettus\lbin>svn lock --username jcorvel test.txt
'test.txt' locked by user 'jcorvel'.
