Trac definetly not - just tested. But I mean generic mod_dav_svn. If
"svn cat" expands the keywords, what is the difference?

Ahh: If I do a "svn cat", the client issues a PROPFIND to the server,
while a ordinary web browser simply GETs the file.
This must be the difference: the svn client speaks DAV, and the web
browser plain HTTP only.
