Unfortunately, that package comes without hints on doing that.
As far as I understand, alien-svn comes with SVN sources which it uses for its own perl packages to provide svn stuff to perl, but don't install/build new svn version.

./src/subversion/subversion/bindings/swig/perl/native/Delta.pm ./src/subversion/subversion/bindings/swig/perl/native/Base.pm ./src/subversion/subversion/bindings/swig/perl/native/Ra.pm ./src/subversion/subversion/bindings/swig/perl/native/Repos.pm ./src/subversion/subversion/bindings/swig/perl/native/Core.pm ./src/subversion/subversion/bindings/swig/perl/native/Wc.pm ./src/subversion/subversion/bindings/swig/perl/native/Client.pm ./src/subversion/subversion/bindings/swig/perl/native/blib/lib/SVN/Delta.pm ./src/subversion/subversion/bindings/swig/perl/native/blib/lib/SVN/Base.pm ./src/subversion/subversion/bindings/swig/perl/native/blib/lib/SVN/Ra.pm ./src/subversion/subversion/bindings/swig/perl/native/blib/lib/SVN/Repos.pm ./src/subversion/subversion/bindings/swig/perl/native/blib/lib/SVN/Core.pm ./src/subversion/subversion/bindings/swig/perl/native/blib/lib/SVN/Wc.pm ./src/subversion/subversion/bindings/swig/perl/native/blib/lib/SVN/Client.pm ./src/subversion/subversion/bindings/swig/perl/native/blib/lib/SVN/Fs.pm ./src/subversion/subversion/bindings/swig/perl/native/Fs.pm ./inc/My/SVN/Builder.pm ./lib/Alien/SVN.pm ./blib/lib/Alien/SVN.pm
and so I added the paths to PERL5LIB:
export PERL5LIB=\
<alien-svn>/blib/lib/Alien\
:<alien-svn>/src/subversion/subversion/bindings/swig/perl/native/blib/lib\
:<alien-svn>/src/subversion/subversion/bindings/swig/perl/native
where "." is the source directory of alien-svn and where the ./Build.PL and
./Build scripts ran.
Running git-svn with that complains
Can't locate loadable object for module SVN::_Core in @INC (@INC contains: ... <alien-svn>/blib/lib/Alien <alien-svn>/src/subversion/subversion/bindings/swig/perl/native/blib/lib <alien-svn>/src/subversion/subversion/bindings/swig/perl/native ...) at <alien-svn>/src/subversion/subversion/bindings/swig/perl/native/blib/lib/SVN/Base.pm line 59 BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at <alien-svn>/src/subversion/subversion/bindings/swig/perl/native/blib/lib/SVN/Core.pm line 5.

git-svn:42 is mumbling about some problems:
sub _req_svn {
require SVN::Core; # use()-ing this causes segfaults for me... *shrug*Or is there needed even more like a _Core.pm? alien-svn should build it, doesn't it?

How do I install that?
Sorry for all these question. Admin left the company some weeks ago and I am struggling to get this to work somehow between my everyday work...
