Well, it's more probable that I am out in the blue :)

I'm not entirely sure of course, since I don't know exactly why all of our 
wc's at work screwed up. But I suspect the problems are related since I 
remembered now that what I had done before our problems occurred was just 
that; added some files and moved some directories.

Is this was not the cause, our problems could possibly have had something to 
with moving directories which contain non-versioned files in them. Something 
along the lines of:

#Create repository and dir structure
svnadmin create /repos
svn mkdir file:///repos/trunk -m ""
svn mkdir file:///repos/trunk/test -m ""
svn mkdir file:///repos/trunk/test/to_be_moved -m ""
#User 1
svn checkout file:///repos/trunk trunk1
#User 2
svn checkout file:///repos/trunk trunk2
#User 1 moves the subdir
svn move trunk1/test/to_be_moved trunk1/test/moved
svn commit trunk1 -m ""
#User 2 obstructs the move by putting a file in the dir
cd trunk2
echo "" > test/to_be_moved/test.txt
#The update here fails correctly
svn update test
rm test/to_be_moved/test.txt
svn update test

Which fails with the error:
svn: Filesystem has no item
svn: file not found: transaction '7', path '/trunk/test/moved'
