Download the source for db4 4.2 and install it /usr/local/db4-4.2 and configure
subversion to use that (configure --with-berkeley-db=/usr/local/db4-4.2).

This should already work. If it doesn't (svn complains about wrong paths),
create a shell script in your path which is found before the real
svn (for example $HOME/bin/svn).

Put this into the script:

#!/bin/sh

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/db4-4.2/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

exec /usr/local/bin/svn "$@"
