I'm not sure why they wouldn't be cached in the first place. SilkSVN
is just a Windows distribution of the Subversion binaries, right? I've
seen weird things with SVNKit-based clients where an alternate
credentials cache is used, but that doesn't appear to be the case
here.

If you continue to run into trouble, I'll try to think of some other
troubleshooting steps. But really you should get a Mac :)
