Have you considered using maven or some other system that is designed to manage binary version using the file system?

Are they binaries not buildable from source checked into your svn repository?

Our build system stores the artifacts of the build (the binaries and other deployables) in the file system of the build server which is shared out. The build system cleans up after it self keep only the artifacts of the last 5 builds of each project/major.minor version.
