I'm afraid this was my bad -- I blindly applied the patch and svn
deleted the 0 byte files and failed to manually do the svn move
instead.

I believe the trunk version of svn includes an "svn patch" command
(that is sorely needed).  It'd fix this as well as eg forgetting to
svn add new files in a patch, failing to carry over changes to svn
props, etc.
