You may want to run a simple local http proxy that itself can use a SOCKS5 proxy to access the internet (polipo may be a candidate). If you only need to access a specific SVN host you may also run a port forwarder that can use SOCKS5. Or do 'ssh -L localport:desthost:destport helperhost' when you have something ourside you can ssh to, and use netcat as a proxy command to get through the socks proxy. tsocks is by definition a hack that can't work in all circumstances.
