Thanks for your suggestions.
This didn't help.
I already got the error before installing mod_security.
I thought this might give me more information about the error,
but it did not, so I have erased it now.

I've tried adding
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
inside <Location /repos>...</Location> in subversion.conf ,
but this didn't affect the error.
I'm going to read up a bit on WebDAV,
and see if that throws any light on my problem
(which is only theoretical, since I can access my SVN repository
with svnserver).
