This is a feature. It allows you to use Apache authentication setups that are path based like mod_authz_svn is. In your case (and most users case) the only authentication handler that cares about the path is mod_authz_svn, in which case you can use the mod_dav_svn configuration directive "SVNPathAuthz short_circuit" which will prevent subrequests from being generated for additional paths that a request touches other than the path in the request URI and instead simply ask mod_authz_svn to process the path directly. This will speed up your server by quite a bit since subrequests are slow as well as resolving your problem with LDAP.
