I've been using shell globs on the filename.

For a finite subset of "subversion >= 1.7", you could use:

exclude = subversion-1.7*  subversion-1.8* subversion-1.9* 
subversion-1.??.* subversion-1.???.* subversion-2*


Or if you wanted to be more precise, you could:
  - edit /etc/yum.repos.d/rpmforge.repo to exclude "subversion" from 
[rpmforge] entirely
  - manually duplicate the [rpmforge] section and name it 
[rpmforge-subversion]
  - add to this new [rpmforge-subversion] repo:
includepkgs = subversion-1.6.*
