The suexec-umask will have no effect on Subversion at all. Suexec is for
running CGI scripts as a speceific user, and the suexec-umask flag just
tells Apache what the umask should be when running SuExec. But Subversion
is integrated into Apache as a module, which means that there is no CGI
cript, and thus SuExec isn't used.
