No, it has.
The default value for the global-ignores option is not empty.

The value can be seen in the sources (as some #define there), and
is also written as a comment into the subversion config file when
it is auto-created for the first time.

In svn 1.5.0 it is
# global-ignores = *.o *.lo *.la *.al .libs *.so *.so.[0-9]* *.a *.pyc *.pyo
# *.rej *~ #*# .#* .*.swp .DS_Store

Note, that the value differs between svn 1.4 and 1.5. That is, you should
start with empty configuration files to get them rewritten and to see
the recent value of comment, or look into the sources.

The default value for 1.5 includes pattern for *.so files, while the one
of 1.4 does not, and I was once caught by the change.

Best regards,
