'svn commit' is prompting you for a password, right? If you're not passing --username to it, then it's picking up your 'whoami' username instead by default. Try adding --username to the commit prompt (and if you're comfortable, allow svn to cache the username/password combo.)
What's going on here is that our old svn server used to password-challenge the client on *any* https access. Our new svn server only challenges on *writes*. Thus adding --username to a checkout command is utterly ignored; the client only pays attention to it when challenged by the server.
