That's because hot-backup.py.in is a template for hot-backup.py. During
the configure process the @SVN_BINDIR@ is replaced with the appropriate
path.

Actually, the should be just a plain 'hot-backup.py' (not
'hot-backup.py.in') script in the tools/backup folder where you built
subversion. 'hot-backup.py' should have all the correct paths. It's
generated from 'hot-backup.py.in' as a result of the configure process.
If you use the correct one, it will already have the correct paths in
it. :-)
