Long story short, I'm the victim of my own stupidity. I have apache
managing trac and subversion on that machine. This little gem, which
comes from Trac's stock-standard config, seems to be the culprit:
## Trac and subversion authentication ##
<LocationMatch "/[^/]+/login">
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Projects"
AuthUserFile /etc/svn.htpasswd
Require valid-user
</LocationMatch>
Commenting that bit out seems to fix things.
Big thanks to Daniel and Ryan for the suggestions to noodle around
with the server config.
Just have to tighten up that regex, and I think all will be well.
