By the way, are you *sure* you want to do this, Kurt?

Port 80 is the standard port for HTTP, which would be appropriate if
you were using Subversion over http://. The svn:// access method has
its own standard port, 3690. So using svn:// on 80 will not only
block a web server from using that port, it's also non-standard for
svn://.

(Oh, I see -- you're going through a firewall that allows 80 but not
3690, and it's not easy for you to change that, right? Gotcha.)
