It's the value in svn:realmstring which is apparently the one you tried first
but must have made some mistake (I'd guess a trailing character if you're using
the md5sum command).

I see on StackOverflow that you figured it out. For reference the code
responsible for this is in svn_auth__file_path() which lives in
subversion/libsvn_subr/config_auth.c

Link to the code in trunk:
