you gave me the right hint, thanks a lot.

I reverted, and had the file recreated.

But, which is odd: the file had never been committed. TortoiseSVN's repo 
browser did not show it.
(it did only show one other file that was supposed to be there).
So I had a file marked as "in sync with the repo" that wasn't in the repository.
(IIRC I had tried that before: revert, see it, try to delete it, get the 
message from above).

This time I ran "update to revision -- empty" on that directory, removing all 
files,
and then back to "update to revision -- all elements fully recursive" and the 
file that belongs there was restored 
and the one that I had wanted to delete is gone finally.

So an svn update with --set-depth empty seems to clean up the working copy 
database in this case.

I am happy again :-)
