I'm pretty clear on what you're trying to say, but there is one question
left unaswered.

I install a stock Linux distro, my python sits in /usr and doesn't
recognize any modules in /usr/local/pythonXXX/site-packages.

In the subversion dir, I run the following:

./autogen.sh && ./configure && make install && make install-swig-py-ext

At this point would gsvn work?
