Looks like a very good fix - doesn't make the proxy or the clients have any special knowledge. I have added issue #3561 <http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=3561> to track this (mainly because I think it is good to have a place of reference for every significant bug fix that is made in a back-port branch, and also because it is not very easy to trace the emails in the Apache archive). - Julian
