No, I specified /* as my url-pattern:
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>FileFilter</filter-name>
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>
and my filter is not called when the URL is
http://www.hostname.tld/.svn/entries
The servlet spec is weird here and the url-pattern in a
web-resource-collection. The "." has special meaning that seems to
indicate a file extension, not a directory.

It appears, based on reading the servlet spec, that /*
is not sufficient for this.
Why not? /* maps to everything.
Indeed, using Tomcat 6.0.18 I've seen that a request for
/.svn/entries is passed through without hitting my filter.
What <url-pattern> did you specify for the filter?
Tough to diagnose without specific information.
