svn: Malformed XML: not well-formed (invalid token) at line 3

[Adrian Wise <ad...@adrianwise.co.uk>]

I've a problem with a subversion 1.0.0 repository.

The problem stems from an "svn import" in which I had a
file in a subdirectory with the name "?" (which is a stupid
name for a file, but there we are).

subversion apparently changed the name of this file from "?"
to "" and added a file to the repository with no name.

On the initial checkout I got:

svn: Malformed XML: not well-formed (invalid token) at line 3

at the point where that file should have been checked out.

"svn cleanup" won't help, giving the same error message, and
the locks remain in place wo I can't issue any further
svn commands.

"svnadmin recover" completes (alost immediately) reporting
no errors, but the problems remain.

How can I recover from this?

thanks

Adrian
