From the book:

HEAD The latest revision in the repository.

So isn't a trip to the server needed regardless?

From the client you could call:
svn log URL -r HEAD -q

and parse revision out from the result.

Or perhaps this might be easier to consume from ant:
svn log URL -r HEAD -q --xml

All bases covered now? :)

peace
