Negotiate Authentication Broken with Subversion 1.3.0

[Patrick Ryan <ti...@pryan.org>]

Hello,

I've got two servers both hosting repositories.  I'm using Apache2 
mod_auth_kerb to authenticate to an Active Directory server.  When I 
turn off kerberos password authentication to force the use of Negotiate 
authentication, both Subversion and Firefox fail to authenticate, but IE 
works with Negotiate authentication against the server.  Both Subversion 
and Firefox fail without even prompting for credentials.

The client is choosing kerberos password authentication, but when I 
force Negotiate authentication, neither Subversion nor Firefox work.  I 
expect Firefox to break, but not Neon 0.25.4 that's included with 
Subversion 1.3.0.  The error message appears to be the same in either 
case (401 in the Apache logs):

[pryan@svn sandbox]$ svn ci
svn: Commit failed (details follow):
