If they didn't apply the diff between 0.9.7 and 0.9.4 to what they
call their 0.9.4, then no, 0.9.4 isn't good enough (that's why the
regex excludes it!)
But, although older Subversion tarballs may not have excluded 0.9.4,
there have been a number of fixes which I would recommend using with
*any* version Subversion.

All 0.9.x versions are backward compatible though, so, if you know how
to compile a project and you know which parameters RH uses to compile
APR, you can use the same parameters to compile your own 0.9.7 or even
0.9.13.
