There is one problem: they (client and mod_dav_svn) use SAME
subversion libraies both. Split into lib/cli/srv? Ok. Other problem
raises here: libapr. Server binaries -- mod_dav_svn -- should use
COMMON libraries with apache's libapr, so subversion libraries MUST be
linked with libapr from apache2/apache22 port/package (not with libapr
from `devel/apr'). So, CLIENT will depends on APACHE in such case (via
libraries). No profit at all :(((

You can not have simple three packages "subversion-core",
"subversion-client" and "subversion-dav-server" where ONLY
"subversion-dav-server" depends on apache. "subversion-core" must
depends on "apache" too, if you want to have "subversion-dav-server"...
("subversion-svn-server" is one small binary, about 65Kb, without any
additional dependenies, and can be packaged with
client without problems, IMHO).
