I read it. I read it a bunch of times.

It just never occurred to me that the mentioned PHP script would be
compatible with TortoiseSVN. I assumed it was just a script that
could show a web page with a list of repositories when opened in IE.
I'll go try it out now, thanks! :-)

(Maybe it should be clarified in the docs that the PHP script allows
the Repo-Browser to index/enumerate the repositories! I certainly do
not think that it is very clear that it does..)

I did. The reply was something on the lines of, "hm, that's a funny
bug. *shrugs*".
I misinterpreted that as "go to the tsvn mailing list". Sorry.
