In our case, I'm not aware of any such documentation which would have
helped us.

For us the key issue was:
What can I do if Subversion fails with "An error occurred during SSL
communication"?
The corresponding patches based on Philip's answer address this question.
We lost a lot of time by wrongly suspecting problems between serf,
mod_dav_svn and mod_ssl, for example
