I've tested that now and it is indeed an issue.
I installed the cleaned repo on a local server and then did a checkout of
revision 56250 (in middle of cleanup) from the official repo. I then
relocated the checkout to the local cleaned up repo and ran an svn up.
Result was that I got checksum mismatch errors for the affected da.po
files.
But there's also a simple workaround. Just delete the parent directory of
the "damaged" files, and svn will refetch that whole directory and
continue happily.
So users only have to delete selected packages/<package>/debian/po dirs to
repair the damage.
