The only way this would happen is if your Apache is run as user svnuser. If you use svn with apache, the post-commit hooks are executed by the account that is running Apache. Note that you can specify a user/group in Apache's config (provided that you start it as root):

Quoting from httpd.conf:
[[[
#
# If you wish httpd to run as a different user or group, you must run
# httpd as root initially and it will switch.
#
# User/Group: The name (or #number) of the user/group to run httpd as.
# It is usually good practice to create a dedicated user and group for
# running httpd, as with most system services.
#
User svnuser
Group somegroup

This is possible, even if they run with different accounts. Some caveats are listed in the book:
