+          <para>Newer versions of Subversion have grown more strict
+            regarding the format of the values of Subversion's own
+            built-in properties.  Of course, properties created with
+            older versions of Subversion wouldn't have benefitted from
+            that strictness, and as such might be improperly
+            formatted.  Dump streams carry property values as-is, so
+            using Subversion 1.7 to load dump streams created from
+            repositories with ill-formatted property values will, by
+            default, trigger a validation error.  There are several
+            workaround for this problem.  First, you can manually
+            repair the problematic property values in the source
+            repository and recreate the dump stream.  Or, you can
+            manually tweak the dump stream itself to fix those
+            property values.  Finally, if you'd rather not deal with
+            the problem right now, use the
+            <option>--bypass-prop-validation</option> option
+            with <command>svnadmin load</command>.</para>
