For me it seems as there is a bug in some libraries compiled for amd64. I've
made following checks:

- I downloaded newest subversion sources and compiled it. Result was the same as
  above that is "Segmentation fault".

- I installed ia32 chroot system with debootstrap and repository works fine on
  the same machine!

Should I file a bug somewhere?
