Dave HansonI just installed Subversion 1.4.4 on my Intel Mac Pro from http://downloads.open.collab.net/binaries.html. After doing so, git-svn dies with a bus error, in a perl library, I believe.
I rebuild git v1.5.2.1 and reinstalled. Same behavior. I suspect I have a mismatch between git-svn and the perl swig bindings, but I have yet been able to pinpoint the offender. Clues would be appreciated. thanks, dave h

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
