From the rpath it looks like you are using the default --prefix of
/usr/local so the problem is probably that you have older Subversion
libraries installed in /usr/local/lib and the link is erroneously
picking up those libraries instead of the one in your build. If you
remove the Subversion libraries from /usr/local/lib the link will
probably work.

Having to remove the installed libraries is obviously inconvenient,
particularly as they may well be the libraries that you are using. The
way I work around this problem is that I do all my development using a
prefix that doesn't exist:

   ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/subversionx ...

which solves the linking problem. I never install this build so
/usr/local/subversionx/lib never exists. When I want to install a build
of Subversion I reconfigure and rebuild using the correct prefix (and at
this stage I may need to remove the Subversion libraries in the prefix
to get it to link).
