That's a pretty impressive invariant violation.  Enversion would have
caught it, but only because we assert that a modify's previous path must
match its current path -- not because we specifically look for this
situation.

I've also never come across this in the wild.  We should definitely ping
`rmuir` to find out how he committed that revision; platform, version, etc.

Definitely.

I'd lean towards a scripted version of option 1.  You could then
disseminate the script to svnsync mirror admins (like myself), perhaps via
an ASF/infrastructure blog post?
