svnserve not picking up sasldb credential changes

I'm testing out using SASL with svnserve (1.6.1 from Collabnet on Windows
2003 server), and it is basically working. Here is my svn.config:

pwcheck_method: auxprop

auxprop_plugin: sasldb

sasldb_path: x:/path/to/repo/conf/sasldb

mech_list: DIGEST-MD5

 I'm also able to create a user in said db using the saslpasswd2 utility,
and authenticate using the new user's credentials.

However, svnserve only seems to load the db once, at the first access
attempt. Any changes (modified passwords, new users, etc) are not detected
by the service. Old passwords remain viable. Once the service is restarted,
however, the new changes are picked up.

Is this a known problem? Is there some file I need to touch or something?
Restarting the service on every change isn't a reasonable workaround for me.

Thanks in advance,
Dave P.
