You need to get it from the repository or the source archive. It would be
nice if the installer included it and the other scripts under contrib.

AFAIK, files with the .in extension are meant to be processed by the
configure tool to create the final scripts. In the case of svn-load-dirs,
all it does is replace @SVN_BINDIR@, so to get the script to work under
Windows, replace this with the path to svn.exe (or simply remove it, if
svn.exe is in PATH) and remove the .in extension.
