no idea about the fix, but please take a look at:

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/IP_Clearance

the neon library that is used for WebDAV is not licensed acceptably for 
an Apache project, so it will be replaced by something else which 
probably will have different bugs, or perhaps WebDAV will be disabled in 
ApacheOOo.
