Subclipse does not do anything to do this. There is a Java system
property "svnkit.upgradeWC you can set to a value of false. If SVNKit
finds the property it will not upgrade the working copies. Basically
letting you use it with a 1.3 WC.

I think if SVNKit is used to create a working copy it will still be 1.4.

It should not be that hard to get Subversion for Breezy. Just
download the tarball and build it from source if you have to. Or you
could download these static builds if you just need the command line
client. http://svn.haxx.se/dev/archive-2007-02/0040.shtml
