I had the same problem, and came up with the following solution:
1) go into KeyChain Access and find the root certificate that you need
2) select and ctrl-click for the submenu and choose: Export "foo" ...
3) switch the file format to "Privacy Enhance Mail (.pem)"
4) save the result into /Users/whatever/.subversion
5) edit /Users/whatever/.subversion/servers:
ssl-authority-files = /Users/whatever/.subversion/foo.pem
Note that if you need multiple CAs, then use the following format:
ss-authority-files = /Users/whatever/.subversion/first.pem;/Users/whatever/.subversion/second.pem
It is important that there are no spaces around the ";" and that it
resides on a single line.
Hope that helps,
