XML parse error: not well-formed

Hello !

I'm running SVN 0.14.5 (rev 3668) with Apache 2.0.43,
in a htaccess-password protected repository with the common layout
  /trunk
  /branches
    /1.0

I have checked out trunk into my working copy, and get the following error:
  $ svn switch http://repos.url/branches/1.0

[snip files being updated/added/deleted]

subversion/libsvn_ra_dav/util.c:332: (apr_err=175002, src_err=0)
svn: RA layer request failed
svn: REPORT request failed on /trunk
subversion/libsvn_ra_dav/util.c:316: (apr_err=175002, src_err=0)
svn: The REPORT request returned invalid XML in the response: XML
parse error at line 134: not well-formed. (/trunk)

Anyway the working copy is left somewhat awkward, as trying
to switch back yields:
  $ svn sw http://repos.url/trunk
  At revision nnn.

which clearly is not the case; the working copy *has been switched*,
at least partly.

Even more strange, switching from a working copy of the branch
to the trunk works just fine (so we have trunk->branch fails,
but branch->trunk works).

I get the same XML-not-well-formed error with
  $ svn merge -rX:Y http://repos.url/path/to/some/file

subversion/libsvn_ra_dav/util.c:332: (apr_err=175002, src_err=0)
svn: RA layer request failed
svn: REPORT request failed on /path/to/some/file
subversion/libsvn_ra_dav/util.c:316: (apr_err=175002, src_err=0)
svn: The REPORT request returned invalid XML in the response: XML
parse error at line 1: not well-formed. (/path/to/some/file)

regardless of what /path/to/file is, branch or trunk.
Whereas
  $ svn diff -rX:Y http://repos.url/path/to/some/file
works just fine.

I'm a bit confused now - any ideas ?

Thanks a lot
Wolfgang Schnerring
