This is most likely a problem with your build, not with Subversion itself. Maybe your build is getting 32bit and 64bit libraries mixed up? > As I've noted I have successfully built a development version of 1.7.0 on our > 64bit systems in the past. Note that libmagic support was added quite recently (in alpha2). Does the problem disappear if you pass the --with-libmagic=no option to configure?
