Can you tell us which Subversion and apache server run on the server?

I can't reproduce this with the latest 1.8 and trunk versions of
Subversions, but I can think of a few reasons why this might fail using
older versions.

Note that this error is also perfectly acceptable if the URL doesn't point
into your repository... A lot of webserver setups just deny PROPFINDs.
