print 3386, and the same command with -c would not have 3386 in the
range. Since 3386 is the highest rev in the working copy, there must be
some file/dir in the working copy that was last changed in 3386.

That would only be true if the working copy points to the whole
repository.
If the working copy is only of the trunk, where there are other
branches, or of only one of many projects, then there could be changes
committed to the repository that are not represented in the working
copy.
In the example above:
$ svn log -qvr3384:3386 http://svn.red-bean.com/svnbook
------------------------------------------------------------------------
r3384 | sussman | 2008-12-19 14:19:20 +0000 (Fri, 19 Dec 2008)
Changed paths:
M /trunk/src/en/book/ch01-fundamental-concepts.xml
M /trunk/src/en/book/ch04-branching-and-merging.xml
------------------------------------------------------------------------
r3385 | jmfelderhoff | 2008-12-21 16:45:07 +0000 (Sun, 21 Dec 2008)
Changed paths:
M /trunk/src/de/book/ch04-branching-and-merging.xml
------------------------------------------------------------------------
r3386 | jmfelderhoff | 2008-12-21 18:28:51 +0000 (Sun, 21 Dec 2008)
Changed paths:
M /trunk/src/de/book/ch04-branching-and-merging.xml
------------------------------------------------------------------------
you can see that in revisions 3385 and 3386, no change was made to the
English version of the book. I'd guess that your working copy points to
<http://svn.red-bean.com/svnbook/trunk/src/en/book/>. Try the command
svn info
to find out.

Ah, yes. I always checkout trunk and branches separately. So I should have
known.

Not necessarily: if another file on another branch was changed in that
revision, then the working copy can be 3386. That would be the exact
same working copy as with r3385 and r3384 though.

I am trying to figure out a reason why svnversion would print 3386, and the
same command with -c would not have 3386 in the range. Since 3386 is the
highest rev in the working copy, there must be some file/dir in the working
copy that was last changed in 3386.

I don't agree. The existing behaviour is correct, and more useful. If
you're only interested in the most recent commit value, that could be
extracted with a command such as:
$ svnversion -c | grep --only-matching "[0-9]\+" | tail -1
(I can perhaps see an argument for having the behaviour you prefer as an
option to svnversion.)

I think the '-c' output should be a single value, not a range.

Unless you actually changed each and every file in your working copy
in revision 3384, I don't think that's the output you're going to see.
The output you got (57:3384) seems correct to me, assuming there is a
file in your working copy that was changed in revision 57 and not after.

From "svnversion --help" I see these descriptions:
-n [--no-newline] : do not output the trailing newline
-c [--committed] : last changed rather than current revisions
So I think this means that the least-recently-changed committed file
in your working copy was last changed in revision 57, and the most-
recently-changed committed file in the working copy was last changed
in revision 3384, and there are also uncommitted changes somewhere in
your working copy (that's the "M").
