I get a 403 error at the root of the repo: /repos/hayden. Notice from
the command line that I'm trying to check
out /repos/hayden/ekiden-svn/trunk. I do have permissions to that
directory, and can log into the web server and click around and view
files in that directory. I just don't have permissions to the root
folder of the repo (and adding permissions to the root folder of the
repo fixes this issue).

In SVN, I can successfully check out just the repository I want, even
though I don't have read permissions to the root directory.

This is similar to the bug I linked to in the original report -- it
seems to be the same behavior. That bug is marked as fixed, and I'm
using the version that it's marked as fixed in, so I'm not sure what's
going on.
