I had no problem building subversion into my home directory, but than
I had previously built Apache also into my home directory so I didn't
run into those permission issues. I'm guessing a bit, but I think
your problem is that --prefix is being ignored because the install
process thinks the Apache modules should go in the directory where
Apache expects them to be (not an unreasonable assumption IMO).

Looking at configure --help, you could try configuring with --without-
apxs and --without-apache
