if you're using Apache 2.0 and therefore APR 0.9x AFAIK you have a
limit of 2GiB.
You can either update to Apache 2.2 which as I've read requires APR
1.2.x and therefore also files greater than 2GiB or build Subversion
without Apache support - mod_dav_svn - against APR 1.2.x and get
big-file support in svn:// and svn+ssh://. As you're already using
Apache I would say option one (Apache 2.2 with APR 1.2.x) is your
solution.
