Slight nuance: the serf library in svn 1.8.0 requires that the server
accepts chunked requests *when it claims to talk HTTP/1.1*. Svn+serf
can also talk HTTP/1.0 (no chunking involved), but when it detects
HTTP/1.1 it will automatically start sending chunked requests, and
cannot fallback anymore (at least not in svn 1.8.0). As Stefan said, a
fix is being worked on, and will probably be released soon.

BTW, we're mostly talking about "reverse proxies" here, i.e. a proxy
on the server side, in front of the svn server.
