An SVN dump file entry which branches a deleted revision will fail.

Apparently SVN will "copy" the latest, undeleted version of a file to the
new location.  Perforce does not undelete it at the head revision, the way svn does.

This causes comparison problems between the files in the SVN repository and the Perforce depot.

Conversion errors show:

of AbstractScreencast.cpp.
