...if you had an interview at a place that had a reputation for not hiring women? (especially if you *are* a woman *and* really want the job?)

I'd go for it. You might change their mind.

Oh, I am. Any ideas on tactics? (i.e. though I feel bad about it, I'm going to wear slacks instead of my usual skirt).

Wearing slacks is good. Try for professional and business-like. If they voice any misgivings tell them, "I can do this job if you give me a chance." I know they aren't likely to come out and say we don't hire women, but a positive attitude will help, I'm sure. Good luck!

*nods* I'm very much going to go for the professional look. I'm going to go over interviewing skills with a friend of mine, so I'll try to keep a positive attitude in mind! Thanks!

(and, hee, I love your icon!)
