Thank you for answer. In fact, you both were right, it seems Windows is
using the system path even when running with different user account. Why
ever.

On the other hand it's a pity that Subversion's setup doesn't write
svn.exe's location into the registry (as usual on Windows). The client
adapter could then use this path instead of relying on the global path
to be set.

Thanks for all
