Thanks everyone for the help. Like Branden, I have four other Gentoo ~amd64 boxes with subversion use flag sasl, and they work fine. This laptop has always worked fine too, until about 2011-12-05. Gentoo currently removes .la files, IIUC, after the source compilation stage. I ran the deprecated tool to find and remove them, just in case. No .la files were found from any package. $ sudo lafilefixer --justfixit ... /usr/lib64/libsasl2.la already clean, skipping update. ... The subversion and cyrus-sasl packages are built with the following use flags. (-sasl configured just now) dev-libs/cyrus-sasl-2.1.25 USE="gdbm mysql pam postgres sqlite ssl -authdaemond -berkdb -java -kerberos -ldapdb -openldap -sample -srp -static-libs -urandom" dev-vcs/subversion-1.7.1 USE="apache2 bash-completion nls perl python webdav-neon -berkdb -ctypes-python -debug -doc -dso -extras -gnome-keyring -java -kde -ruby -sasl -vim-syntax -webdav-serf" I am now able to access svn:// urls, so the local problem is masked, although not fully understood. I'd like to follow it to the cause so I can file a Gentoo bug if needed. Are there any files under etc/ or ~/.subversion that might influence subversion's protocol to access to svn:// urls? I had previously cleared out ~/.subversion/auth FWIW. I'm grasping for something that might be different on this machine than the others. Thanks, Jeff
