That's totally normal. With svn+ssh, you don't have an always-running
svnserve. Instead, ssh starts svnserve when you initiate a
connection, and stops it when the connection is done.

Exactly.

You must have multiple versions of svnserve on your Mac then. The
version of svnserve that ssh is finding is too old. Subversion didn't
come with Mac OS X until version 10.5, so check any copies of
Subversion you might have installed yourself. Check in /usr/local/
bin, /opt/local/bin, /sw/bin, even /usr/bin or any other paths in
your $PATH. Check your ssh configuration files.
