I haven't tried svn update, but svn checkout worked great.  However, I am using 
the pure Java svn plugin with great success.

I've rely heavily on svn but I could not get the svn task to work
either.  Instead, I just use exec like this:

<target name="test" description="testing svn">
        <property file="svn.prop"/>
        <exec executable="svn" dir="${basedir}">
                <arg value="export"/>
                <arg value="${svn.url}"/>
                <arg value="--username=${svn.user}"/>
                <arg value="--password=${svn.pass}"/>
        </exec>
</target>


I know this isn't a solution, but it's a workaround that might help you
until somebody can shed more light on the svn task for us.
