FWIW, you can compile the svn binary elsewhere, statically linked, and
save the dependency problem by copying the resulting binary around.

I do this on many machines, and even have a static svn binary in
/root/bin as a fallback in case things blow up badly and I cannot access
/usr/local.

(I also do the same thing with the pkgng pkg-static binary...)
