So the main issue with that, is if you bundle newer subversion libs, it
auto-upgrades the checkouts to the latest version when you work with them.

I don't have a good feeling about upgrading someones SVN checkout to 1.6
because they used bzr-svn, when their local svn client is only 1.5.

I think it would be good to have the option, but it would be *better* to
do that as a bzr-svn-1.6 extra installer, rather than forcing it always.

What I would *really* like to see is a chained installer that had
options for dependencies, but I'm not a good enough installer guru to
figure that out.
