I have two subversion 1.0.4 installations on Woody, with the perl
bindings. You should definitely upgrade perl. You can recompile perl 5.8
in /usr/local without breaking your base perl installation in /usr. Be
sure to recompile SWIG to the point to the new perl as well, use
perl-5.8 everywhere etc.
Good luck though, cause even if you are very careful it's very easy to
forget something / do something wrong, and have your perl bindings fail
in non-obvious ways. In short, it's a pita (last time I compiled the
perl bindings, it took me 3 days of trying before getting it right)
