Since these are Apache servers, shouldn't a user-agent-contingent rewrite rule be able to handle all of that transparent to the user? Looks like it's almost there, but the subversion client doesn't handle 302 redirects. If all else fails, ProxyPass should do the trick. (Somebody who better knows how this is implemented and those involved could forward this to the right place.)
