If there is such a problem it should be much easier for you to reproduce
it than for us to work out exactly what you are doing. For example
update itself can resolve conflicts with --accept:

svnadmin create repo
svn mkdir -mm file://`pwd`/repo/A
svn import -mm repo/format file://`pwd`/repo/A/f
svn co file://`pwd`/repo_at_1 wc
touch wc/A/f
svn up --accept working wc

That leads to f being marked for deletion:

$ svn st wc
D wc/A/f
