As the error message states, install_name is only applicable to Mach-O
dynamic libraries (MH_DYLIB, .dylib), not bundles (MH_BUNDLE generally
.so), and mod_dav_svn is a bundle. See ld's man page for more
information.

You are likely using an old, broken version of GNU libtool (not to be
confused with NeXT/Apple's utility of the same name). The version
which ships with 10.2.x is derived from GNU libtool 1.4.2, and can't
properly create bundles even when passed the -module flag, as
Subversion's build process correctly does above.

The easiest way to fix this is to install libtool from Fink, which is
a 1.5 derived version devoid of the above bug.
