Authentication with 1.5/1.6 client against 1.4 server

Hi,

I'm unsuccessfully trying to access a repository via that's protected
via an authz file. We suspect it's an incompatibility between client and
server, but I'd love if someone could prove otherwise. The error message
I get on a checkout is:

svn: Not authorized to open root of edit operation
If I try the same checkout operation with an older client (1.4), the
operation succeeds. See below for the exact versions for which the
operation fails.

Thanks for any comments.
Felix
