SVN 1.5.1 via write-through proxy doesn't pass capabilities

All,

I have a SVN 1.5.1 master server, a SVN 1.5.1 write-through proxy server,
and a SVN 1.5.1 client. Both servers run Apache 2.2. When I commit
directly to the master server, the start-commit hook script gets the
capabilities of the client passed to it. When I commit to the write-through
proxy, the start-commit hook script doesn't get any capabilities passed to
it (arg 3 is empty).

This issue seems relevant, but KeepAlive is enabled on both master and proxy
server. From Karl's comments, the bug doesn't come into play if KeepAlive
is On.

I wonder if this is another naunce to #3255 that is caused by the
write-through proxy. Has anyone else seen this problem?

#3255 was fixed in SVN 1.5.2, but since this is a production environment
(and I'm not the one with root priviledges), I am going to have a hard time
trying 1.5.2 to see if it is magically fixed.

thanks,
David
