My expectation is that in most cases svnserve is used on conjunction
with ssh or is started via inetd. In that case no init.d script is
needed since the login session or inetd invokes svnserve. Should
there be a commented entry in /etc/inetd.conf? Would you consider
that enough? If you can describe a bit how you are using svnserve
we can probably find something that makes sense.

Thanks for the report,
