--trust-server-cert option to avoid this, but /usr/bin/svn on 10.5
is too
old to have it. Unless we are going to add subversion as a
dependency for
all ports setting svn as the fetch type, this is a problem.
This would be a simple solution. I think we can neglect entity
authentication as we are also not doing anything like that when using
rsync and HTTP/FTP.

Adding a dependency on svn 1.6 from MacPorts would be an immediate
fix.
I think that's what we should do -- for the ports that require it.
It's simple and straightforward. If you add a comment explaining why
the MacPorts svn is required vs. the svn on Leopard that'll make it
clear to anyone looking at the portfile later.
