Change above to AllowOverride AuthConfig
AuthUserFile /mount/repositories/av1984_apache_authfile
Suggest you rename it to .av1984_apache_authfile otherwise to
prevent others gaining access to this file by giving the full path.

Aren't these parameter required when using .htaccess file. Are these
required when the access is controlled from the httpd.conf file also.
The above configuration works in Fedora9. Am not sure, but this may
either be change in functioning of Apache or a bug.
