On the CentOS box, can you cleanly check out a copy of the repository
to somewhere else in your NFS-mounted home directory? E.g.,
mkdir ~/svn-tmp
cd ~/svn-tmp
svn co [...]
If so, I'd be interested to compare the output of 'svn info' from the
test checkout with that of the one in ~/dev.

The presence of the near-ancient Subversion 1.1.4 in RHEL 4/CentOS 4
is a constant sore spot around my workplace. I feel your pain. :-)
