Fixed. Turns out I had older--and now incompatible--svn Perl bindings in
/Library/Perl/5.8.6/darwin-thread-multi-2level/{SVN,auto}
The newest bindings are in
/usr/local/lib/svn-perl/{SVN,auto}/

Even running perl -e "use SVN::Core" crashed with a bus error. Adding /usr/local/lib/svn-perl to the environment variable PERL5LIB fixes these problems.

I removed /Library/.../{SVN,auto}. Interestingly, perl -e "use SVN::Core" then fails with a reasonable diagnostic. Next, I did

sudo cp -rp /usr/local/lib/svn-perl/* \
   /Library/Perl/5.8.6/darwin-thread-multi-2level

which obviates the need to set PERL5LIB. I'm sure there's a way to configure perl to add /usr/local/lib/svn-perl to PERL5LIB. Even so, the old, incompatible bindings must be removed.

Pardon the false alarm, dave h
