smbmount(8):

       fmask=<arg>
              sets the file mask. This determines the permissions that remote
              files have in the local filesystem. The default is based on the
              current umask.

       dmask=<arg>
              sets the directory mask. This determines the permissions that
              remote directories have in the local filesystem. The default
              is based on the current umask.

So mount with proper mount options and then set svn:executable manually. Should
work.
