The bindings may have changed since the last time I looked at them and
decided on pysvn, but it used to be that the python bindings that came
with subversion were very much C wrapped in Python. That is to say,
even though you're in python you have to do very C like things like
manually pass around memory pools, etc. pysvn is much more pythonic,
but the python bindings give you fill access to the C API. I'm not sure
if they'd actually translate the relative externals for you though since
that depends if the translating function is accessible in the C API or
if it's buried in the other functions (or not exported) that actually
need the URLs translated.
