SVN :409 Conflict error while checkout

Hi All,

We are getting following SVN conflict issue intermittently in our system.

svn: CHECKOUT of '/svn/xxx/!svn/ver/264/-1234/webapps': 409 Conflict (
https://xxx.xxx.xxx)

1. Do we have any workaround to get rid of this issue permanently ?
2. Is this a bug in SVN 1.6 or SVN kit ?
3. If this a bug in some previous SVN version, is that fixed in any new
version ?
4. Is this issue happens due to some SVN configuration issue ?

Appreciate your help on this.
