So I gave it a try. I installed Apache as a service using the supplied
installer for 1.5RC4. I left everything at defaults except I changed
the drive letter for the repo from C: to D: because I had already
created a repository there for testing svnserve. I started the
services. I am not encouraged by the results.

C:\>svn ls http://localhost/
svn: Server sent unexpected return value (405 Method Not Allowed) in
response to
 PROPFIND request for '/'

C:\>svn ls http://localhost/svn
svn: Server sent unexpected return value (403 Forbidden) in response to
OPTIONS
request for 'http://localhost/svn'

The log files indicate:

Sigh... this is why pulling in Apache is more trouble than it's worth...

The svnserve version is accessing the repo without a problem.

C:\>svn ls svn://localhost/
trunk/
