This is reproducible?  You checkout some revision R1 and update to R2
and see the error?

Can you describe the changes between R1 and R2?

Is there a single revision that causes the problem: checkout R1 and
update revision by revision to R2 to determine when the error occurs.

The server version should be irrelevant.
