Correction: expat is in base already, as libbsdxml (rather confusingly
built under lib/libexpat).

So AFAICS the only remaining piece is APR (and svn itself), and I
suspect that if only the bits required for a svn client were brought in
(assuming the licence is deemed acceptable) that would be a lot smaller
than a full APR build. (Again, this would need to be built as libbsdapr
to avoid conflicts with real APR from ports.)
