I'm able to reproduce this on one of my three Windows XP machines.
Ironically, the only one without a Symantec product installed.

I recompiled without sasl2 support directly in svn and that fixed the
problem for me. This didn't require disabling serf, by the way.

I'm not sure why this is hanging on some machines and not others. I see
in Process Explorer there's a UDP connection related to sasl2 open when
the process is hanging, but I haven't had time to investigate further.

OP, if you want, you can recompile subversion yourself. You'll need to
add "--without-sasl" to CYGCONF_ARGS in the subversion .cygport file.
