FWIW, Squid supports DAV methods, by default...probably all of the ones
needed by Subversion, though I'm not sure I've tested it (I probably
have, as I sell Squid-based web caches, and so am often behind them
without thinking about it).

If it doesn't work, it's probably trivial to add the necessary methods.
  Now that I'm thinking of it, I'll give it a try tonight when I get
back to the office...if it doesn't work, I'll see about getting it fixed.
