Several machines including my current are 4.1.25. I might have done
some testing at one point with 4.2 but I don't remember the exact
results except that 4.2 also didn't completely work for me then.

I basically took a cleanly everything installed fedora core 1 machine.
Installed David Summers Fedora Core RPMS listed on the subversion web
pages.

I did a very basic Apache configuration with no authentication.
Unfortunately, I don't have access to my test machine right now so I
can't give you the exact error messages. I can provide more details and
testing if needed over the weekend or next week.

LoadModule dav_module modules/mod_dav.so
LoadModule dav_svn_module modules/mod_dav_svn.so

<Location /svn>
    DAV svn
    SVNPath /home/svn/svnroot
</Location>

Create repository.
cd /home/svn
svnadmin create svnroot

Be lazy about perms for testing.
chmod -R a+rw /home/svn

On the same machine I then do a checkout and checkin.

cd ~
svn co http://localhost/svn svn1
cd svn1
Copy gcc source code into this location. Approx 16000 files in the
tree.

svn add *
svn ci
