You don't need to differentiate anything.  devel/subversion
installs svnversion.  svnversion simply needs to be in $PATH.
If newvers.sh can't find svnversion in $PATH, then it can fall
back to /usr/bin/svnliteversion.  The install svnversion from
devel/subversion will in all likelihood be consistent with the
svn used to checkout/update /usr/src.
