kes# su -m svn -c 'sh -c "/usr/local/bin/svnserve -d --listen-port=3690 --foreground -r /var/db/trunk"'
su: Sorry
kes# su -fm svn -c 'sh -c "/usr/local/bin/svnserve -d --listen-port=3690 --foreground -r /var/db/trunk"'
su: Sorry
kes# pw group show svn
svn:*:1005:
kes# cat /etc/group | grep svn
svn:*:1005:
kes# pw user show svn
svn:*:1005:1005::0:0:SVN user:/nonexistent:/bin/bash

As you see it does not work also with -fm option


Also I notice next differences between FreeBDS 7.0 and 7.1 (detail below)
Notice that on both system account is locked, has no valid shell and
home directory
on FreeBSD 7.0 when I try to login with svn user it says: This account is currently not available.
on FreeBSD 7.1 when I try to login with svn user it says: su: Sorry
Maybe there is a problem with su on FreeBSD 7.1?



home# pw user show svn
svn:*:1003:1002::0:0:SVN user:/nonexistent:/usr/sbin/nologin
home# su svn
This account is currently not available.


kes# pw user show svn
svn:*:1005:1005::0:0:SVN user:/nonexistent:/bin/bash
kes# su svn
su: Sorry
kes# pw user mod svn -s /usr/bin/nologin
kes# pw user show svn
svn:*:1005:1005::0:0:SVN user:/nonexistent:/usr/bin/nologin
kes# su svn
su: Sorry
