You should be able to build something around :diffpatch, e.g.

    :!svn diff % > tmpfile
    :diffpatch tmpfile

However, personally, I keep a window open on the 'svn diff' output (which
I leave as the default unidiff), and wrote a command[1] that refreshes it
(after I've made changes and want to see the new diff).
