That is right. Due to some network configuration out of my control, I
can't get answers from the local caching DNS. This is just as well
bcause I can't reach external hosts anyway.

I am doing it already. The svn request is passed as a CONNECT request
to Squid. Squid handles it perfectly.

The problem is the svn client on my local Linux box. It attempts to
lookup svn.apache.org even when the proxy is specified. I am wondering
how to disable this behavior. My workaround is to force the DNS entry
to 127.0.0.1 through /etc/hosts and it's fine.
