Stupid question: Why do you want to use svn if you'll have a working system with hg?

Concerning your problem: You might want to try to convert the main svn repository to a Mercurial repository and manage your patches there. This should work because you can make "incremental" conversions (i.e. if you convert the same svn repository to the same hg repository, only the newly added changes from svn are converted)
