Problem committing new files only (PROPFIND request gets 500 err)

I've been having some strange problems committing to an svn repository
served by Apache2 over https. I don't see the problem over http.

I am able to authenticate, checkout a working copy, create initial directory
structure and commit that ... but when I try to create a new file and commit
the new file I get the following error:

svn: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/svn/trunk/test2.tmp'
svn: PROPFIND of '/svn/trunk/test2.tmp': 500 Internal Server Error
(https://myserver.com)

However, if I create a new directory and put a file in that new directory, I
can commit that without any problems. Which I don't understand ...

So far I've only encountered this problem when creating a new file by
itself. This problem occurs for every user currently accessing the
repository.

Does anyone have any ideas what I might be doing wrong?

To summarize: I can checkout a working copy, create directories, create a
file at the same time I create its parent directory, delete files, delete
directories, modify existing files, and update my working copy ... but when
I try to create a new file on its own, I get the 500 error as described
above.

Here are the offending entries in the Apache access logs:

Any ideas?
