Subversion uses a number of HTTP protocol requests (other than simple
GET and POST) that the proxy at work might not be allowing through --
when you connect on port 80 do you get a real connection straight out,
or a proxied connection?

It should be possible to run Apache on a different port, just add the
relevant bind directive.

Alternatively you could try svnserve -- it requires a lot less
configuration and can work on any port. Finally, if you can get out on
port 22 you might try using svn+ssh to connect to your repository, but
beware about multi-user permissions issues.

Best regards,
Mike.
