Can you provide a link to this message so it's easy to find it and to
reply to it?
The archives are at http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/subversion-dev/

Thanks, tests always help and give insight.

Note that the problem is not specific to svn. If I understand correctly
it's a problem with mod_deflate. It's possible to work around it in
Subversion, but a proper fix would have to be made within mod_deflate.

I don't know what the status of this bug is with the httpd team,
whether it's known there, or if a fix is in sight.
The fix seems to be important to you, so maybe you could ask them?

Thanks,
Stefan
