I believe that Justin is correct, but I've seen that error message also. I think that any version svn client can create a *new* working copy from any version svn server.
However, if you check out a working copy with a newer svn client, then try to access that same working copy with an older svn client, you may see that error message, depending on what new features have been added. I ran into this problem when I had a newer svn client (via Eclipse Subversive) that created working copies that my system svn client (Red Hat 5) didn't understand.

You need to get a newer Subversion client, or to downgrade this working copy. See http://subversion.tigris.org/faq.html#working-copy-format-change for details.
