'configure --help' is your friend:

  --enable-apache-whitelist=VER
                          Whitelist a particular Apache version number,
                          typically used to enable the use of a old version
                          patched by a distribution.

But be aware that if the RHEL 7 version of httpd is *not* patched, your
SVN server will be broken in subtle ways.

I really have no idea how to check that.
