Stu,
yes, the backport should be ready Real Soon Now. I'm successfully
running it on a lenny box as we speak.
IMHO, Subversion 1.5.5 was pretty much the first "production ready"
1.5.x release. However, I have not seen the sort of memory footprint you
describe even with 1.5.1.
Peter has already shipped Subversion 1.6.x into experimental, cf.
http://packages.debian.org/search?suite=experimental&searchon=names&keywords=subversion
Not sure about the plans for its promotion.
