In 1.4, the working copy format changed, and if you use a working
copy with a Subversion 1.4.x client, it auto-updates the working copy
so that it will only work with Subversion 1.4.x clients from then on.
I don't think there is any way to tell it not to do this.
In 1.4, the repository format also changed, but the repository does
not auto-upgrade to the new format. If you want it, you have to dump
and reload the repository. Also, you can still create 1.3-compatible
repositories using 1.4, if you pass the --pre-1.4-compatible switch
to svnadmin create.
All 1.x Subversion servers and clients should still be able to
communicate with one another over the network protocols.

I thought the repository format did change (svnadmin 1.3 can't operate
on repositories created with svnadmin 1.4), but the network layer is
still fully compatible, so old & new clients & servers can still
communicate.

Please see the release notes for 1.4, they changes so things in the working
copy format and newer working copies cease to work with older clients.
However: this has nothing to do with what you asked in the subject, the
repository format definitely did not change. The only non-backward compatible
change you might have experienced in the 1.x releases would be a change that
is due to upgrading the Berkeley DB libraries, otherwise full backward
compatibility was achieved.

Using a Subversion 1.3.x client and a Subversion 1.4.x client
together is not a problem...

But here it sounds like you have at one point used a Subversion 1.4.x
client with this working copy, after which it is no longer possible
to use a Subversion 1.3.x client with the working copy.
So: either upgrade your client to Subversion 1.4.x, or check out a
new working copy with Subversion 1.3.x and from then on only use
Subversion 1.3.x clients to access that working copy.
