If you are running Ubuntu, and probably other linux distros - you may run into some installation errors like 'Could not find svn_client.h' - check to see if you have installed 'libsvn-dev'.
Installation
Information for installing this PECL extension may be found in the manual chapter titled Installation of PECL extensions. Additional information such as new releases, downloads, source files, maintainer information, and a CHANGELOG, can be located here: » http://pecl.php.net/package/svn
If ./configure is having trouble finding the
SVN files (for example, Subversion was installed with a
different prefix directory), use
./configure --with-svn=$USR_PATH
to specify the directory where the
include/subversion-1/ folder is located.
A DLL for this PECL extension is currently unavailable. See also the building on Windows section.
If the extension is compiled against libsvn 1.3, functions that work with working copies will fail when used on working copies created by Subversion 1.4.

For Windows:
If you use a fresh install of windows XP you will need all this DLL in your C:/windows/system32/ folder:
intl3_svn.dll, libdb43.dll, libapr.dll, libapriconv.dll, libaprutil.dll, libeay32.dll, msjava.dll, php5ts.dll, ssleay32.dll, vsinit.dll, msvcr71.dll, MSVCP71.DLL
I recommend to use DependencyWalker (http://www.dependencywalker.com/) with your php_svn.dll (in php extensions) to see exactly which ones you need.

To make php_svn.dll work with windows, you will first need to find missing dependancies with dependancy Walker tool...
In my case, libdb43.dll and libphp5ts.dll where missing in sytem32 directory.
