See http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=3242

1.5.0 has brought features which try to do things that aren't
compatible with the way authz was designed. No one noticed
this prolem before 1.5.0 release, because people don't test
our release candidates.

It's a problem that's hard to tackle right now because of lack
of developer resources.

For now, you're best off moving all your customers to separate
repostitories if you can't live with them seeing each others'
directories.
