This answer is somewhat orthogonal to your question, but the RPM that
CollabNet provides for 1.6 and 1.7 works on RHEL4. This is because
the RPM is not designed to replace the subversion RPM from RHEL nor
does it use any of the dependencies from RHEL. The RPM includes all
dependencies and everything is installed outside of /usr.

So if someone merely wants to get a working up to date client or
server on RHEL4, this is one way to do it. It obviously is not the
solution for everyone though as some will prefer it to work with the
RedHat provided packages.
