After being plagued by this error on more and more windows servers, the solution turned out to be simple. Add http-library = serf (or neon, if you prefer that) to the servers file.
It looks like svn uses a function name that might appear in other libraries also, thus pulling the wrong function with a different, but for svn unexpected, behavior. Hope it helps i.A.
