Open up Keychain Access and look under Passwords > Application. That's
where my SVN creds are. I don't have any references to X509 in my
Keychain.
Assuming you have an X509Anchors keychain as well as a login keychain,
select the login keychain and then go to Preferences (Command-,). If
"Set login keychain as default" isn't checked, check it, and try
again.
This is all for OS X 10.5, I've never used 10.4. If the above b0rks
your system, this conversation never happened.

I'm not sure yet that it's a bug. If the credentials are just in a
different keychain, then I'd suggest that SVN should have a way to
specify which keychain to use, or maybe a runtime option to skip
Keychain altogether.
