You can continue to run 1.3 on port 80 and run Apache 2.0.47 on a high
port and marshall requests to it by setting up a reverse proxy to your
subversion server. See:

    http://httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/mod_proxy.html

Or you might want to use svnserve:

    http://svnbook.red-bean.com/html-chunk/ch05s04.html#svn-ch-5-sect-4.2

although the book is currently a bit out-of-date there (soon to be fixed...).

Nope. You've come to the right place. :)
