We use a somewhat similar setup here, but we encountered no problems
with subclilpse.

We did the following
- create a "in-house-snakeoil-CA"-Certificate (self signed)
- sign the webserver certificate with this CA-cert
- create a certificate for every user
- sign this with the CA-cert as well
- convert this user cert into pkcs12-format (with openssl)
- import this (*.p12) into web browser (for Mozilla) resp. into windows
   certificate store (for IE/Win) for repository access via https
- declare it in the runtime configuration area of subversion in the
   "servers" file.

After this, the commandline client works without any
password/certificate prompt. tortoise, rapidSVN and subclipse
do the same.

hope this helps
