I don't think I have that situation, though.  Only the tree-less
branch is bound, the local branch is not.

Maybe.  But note that the symptoms are very different.  In my case,
the commit succeeded, the only "problem" was with taking a lock.

Again, I don't have a chain of heavyweight checkouts.  The same
arrangement works very well for me on another machine, where the only
difference is that the bound branch has a working tree.
