Maybe http://subversion.tigris.org/ ?
Looks really nice, but is a source code management system (in general) as a document management system? Considering that many documents (MS Office files, PDF and Images) are in binary format, wouldn't that create an unnecessary load in diffing files?
Also, CVS (and subversion) seem very good at conflict handling. While this would be a real neat function of a document management system, I doubt that a useful OSS solution exists that can handle propriety binary formats (such as word).
We could, for the sake of argument, use RTF, but this format is bloated, and is only slightly more open then word DOCs.
I'm not sure it answers all you requests.

wow. not that I have any ideas (other than CVS), but just out of curiosity, what is this for?
CVS would be nice if I could get people to use normal editors with normal formats (read *ML)
Mainly for myself, and some startups I work with.
If you don't find anything existing, I would consider developing it over Zope / Plone.
Thats content management. Different ballgame.
