Not true. The problem is that svn assume it can binary-search based on date,
and if the revisions aren't such that dates are monotonic that's not
guarenteed to converge at the right point (it may find a local
maxima/minima and conclude that's the closed revision). 

Of course, one could munge up the date revprops on the old versions to make
them useless but monotonic, and then it would work right for new stuff.
