Actually, i've seen this bug.  It seems only to apply to the URL keyword.
You don't actually need to pdel.  After adding (and committing) the
svn:keywords, property remove (with rm, not svn rm) the file and then
svn up (which restores it from the text base in the .svn dir).  That will
give you your file with the URL keyword expanded.
