You should be able to install Subversion (and lots of other software)
fairly painlessly on Mac OS X using MacPorts. It handles all the
downloading and the dependencies for you.

Mac OS X 10.3 isn't officially supported by MacPorts anymore, but it
should still work for many ports. I have Subversion installed with
MacPorts on my Power Mac G4 running Panther. Just make sure you
update to the latest Mac OS X 10.3.9, apply all the security updates,
and update to Xcode 1.5.
