If the user corresponding to the svnservice has a login
shell, which would usually be the system's default
dialog shell, the C shell, you could edit /etc/csh.cshrc
and put

	setenv KRB5_KTNAME /home/svn/svn.keytab

to make it a system-wide setting (or use the user's
~/.cshrc for a user-only setting).

In case the user does NOT have a default shell, I think
you should be able to also define a system-wide environmental
variable by coding

	KRB5_KTNAME=/home/svn/svn.keytab; export KRB5_KTNAME

into /etc/rc.local (which will be executed at system startup).
See "man rc.local" for details.
