I'm pretty sure this is what bit me when upgrading from Breezy to Etch. There was a reference to "psvn.el" in ~/.emacs, and Emacs couldn't load a file from the command-line or save any file until I installed a good "vc-svn.el". The only clue was a message in the minibuffer, something like "Couldn't load vc-svn".
