Dump the following in a file called __init__.py in a folder called 
WebDAVPatch in your Products directory:

# Disable MS-Author-via = DAV by monkey patch

from ZPublisher.HTTPRangeSupport import HTTPRangeInterface
from webdav.Resource import Resource, rfc1123_date

def dav__init(self, request, response):
         # Init expected HTTP 1.1 / WebDAV headers which are not
         # currently set by the base response object automagically.
         #
         # Note we set an borg-specific header for ie5 :( Also, we
         # sniff for a ZServer response object, because we don't
         # want to write duplicate headers (since ZS writes Date
         # and Connection itself).
         if not hasattr(response, '_server_version'):
             response.setHeader('Connection', 'close')
             response.setHeader('Date', rfc1123_date(), 1)
         # response.setHeader('MS-Author-Via', 'DAV')

         # HTTP Range support
         if HTTPRangeInterface.isImplementedBy(self):
             response.setHeader('Accept-Ranges', 'bytes')
         else:
             response.setHeader('Accept-Ranges', 'none')

Resource.dav__init = dav__init

def OPTIONS(self, REQUEST, RESPONSE):
         """Retrieve communication options."""
         self.dav__init(REQUEST, RESPONSE)
         RESPONSE.setHeader('Allow', ', '.join(self.__http_methods__))
         RESPONSE.setHeader('Content-Length', 0)
         # RESPONSE.setHeader('DAV', '1,2', 1)

         RESPONSE.setStatus(200)
         return RESPONSE

Resource.OPTIONS = OPTIONS

from webdav.Collection import Collection, rfc1123_date

def dav__init(self, request, response):
         # We are allowed to accept a url w/o a trailing slash
         # for a collection, but are supposed to provide a
         # hint to the client that it should be using one.
         # [WebDAV, 5.2]
         pathinfo=request.get('PATH_INFO','')
         if pathinfo and pathinfo[-1] != '/':
             location='%s/' % request['URL1']
             response.setHeader('Content-Location', location)
         response.setHeader('Connection', 'close', 1)
         response.setHeader('Date', rfc1123_date(), 1)
         # response.setHeader('MS-Author-Via', 'DAV')

Collection.dav__init = dav__init

As a note to anyone reading, this crap will be GOING AWAY on both the 
2.7 branch and the HEAD this Friday unless someone can give me some 
compelling reason for it not to ;-)
