Problem goes away when i set "KrbMethodK5passwd on" as then it falls to Basic Authentication. So SVN is falling to basic authentication on linux

That's what I'm talking about. If you don't force the *server* to fall back to basic authentication, the authentication is successful with some user, but then the authorization fails. If you fall back to basic authentication, you *know* with which user the authentication is done. But without that, you don't know for sure, and it can be any user.

when it is unable to use Negotiate Auth. Problem is how to make it recognise that their is a proper and valid Krb5 ticket for the account and it should use it for Negotiate Auth instead just like Firefox does.

That of course could be the problem too.
And even your server is linux, what server are you authenticating against? If it's the same server, then I think my argument is void. Otherwise you have to check the users on the server you're authenticating against.

As Joe correctly pointed out from debug dumps, it is due to Neon library not built with GSSAPI support. Seems like Gentoo ebuild (for Neon 0.25.5) hardcode "--without-gssapi". manual build with --with-gssapi fixed this problem.
