Possibly defect in the svn client?

Hi,
 
I'm able to reliably reproduce this issue, and wondered if anyone can
shed any light on its cause. I'd also like to log this as a defect, if
the group agrees that it is as such.
 
Summary
Performing an import of a source tree through the svn client, to a
server that uses NTLM SSPI authentication fails with a 501 error
(Multi-author commits not supported) on around the 51st item being
imported. The 501 is occurring because the username is somehow omitted
with this request. The source tree is a typical src, lib, tools layout.
Item 51 is normally one of the nunit assemblies.
 
The command line is
 
svn.exe import <WorkingFolderPath> http://<SvnFolderPath> -m "Message"
--no-auth-cache --non-interactive
 
I've recorded the traffic in Wireshark and the offending PUT request is
always preceeded by a [FIN, ACK] exchange between the server and client,
in which the client tells the server that "Checksum: 0x9e75 [incorrect,
should be 0xee84 (maybe caused by "TCP checksum offload"?)]".
 
I can work around this by adding a username parameter that contains my
NT logon username. The 501 is thus overcome by always ensuring a
username is forced through.
 
Setup
Client PC is WinXP SP2
Client is running the Svn client build from Collabnet: 1.4.6-4.
 
Server PC is a VmWare system running Windows 2003 Server Standard
Edition SP2
Server is running the Svn build from Collabnet: 1.4.6-4.
I'm accessing svn through Apache, using SSPI. The settings are:
<Location /svn>
   DAV svn
   SVNParentPath D:/svn_repository
   SVNListParentPath On
   
   # Authentication
   AuthName "Subversion"
 
   # Windows NT authentication
   AuthType SSPI
   SSPIAuth On
   SSPIAuthoritative On
   SSPIDomain <DOMAIN NAME>
   SSPIOfferBasic On
   require group <GROUP NAME>
</Location>
 
Many thanks
