Assuming the hash function does not need to be portable (which appears
likely from a cursory look at the code), that fix is basically
correct, if you move out the assignment i=0 to right before the
section you made conditional. The following loop will complete the hash.
In other words, something like:

Index: subversion/libsvn_fs_fs/tree.c

+ i = 0;
+#ifdef SVN_UNALIGNED_ACCESS_IS_OK
- for (i = 0; i + 4 <= path_len; i += 4)
+ for (; i + 4 <= path_len; i += 4)
      hash_value = hash_value * 0xd1f3da69 + *(const apr_uint32_t*)
(path + i);
+#endif

    for (; i < path_len; ++i)
      hash_value = hash_value * 33 + path[i];

(By the way, that code violates C's aliasing rules, but we probably
get away with it in this case.)
