Try svnperms.py. The trunk version works with 1.6 just fine.

http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/subversion/trunk/tools/hook-scripts/svnperms.py
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/subversion/trunk/tools/hook-scripts/svnperms.conf.example

The example config file shows how to lock down a tags directory.
You can call svnperms.py with a simple batch file (pre-commit.bat).

[[[
set repos=%1
set txn=%2

set path=%path%;C:\Python26
set path=%path%;C:\Program Files (x86)\<<<your svn cmdline>>>\bin

python %repos%\hooks\svnperms.py -r %repos% -t %txn%
]]]

Steve
