I've configured ldapdb auxprop plugin.
my svn uses sasl, that uses ldapdb.
But it only works if the user (regulr user) have it password in
plain text.
ldap communiction is encrypted (TLS), svn communication is encrypted,
but we don't like having plaintext passwsords in our ldap DB.
so we'll move to apache+ssl.
But, let me paste my conf , just because it has been a hard work looking
too many links and maybe it helps anyone in the future.

Authentication Algorithm:
installed cyrus-sasl-ldap for digest-md5 support.
SASL rewrite rule in Slapd
in /etc/openldap/slapd.conf added
authz-regexp "^uid=([a-z]+).*,cn=digest-md5,cn=auth" \
"uid=$1,ou=People,dc=pic,dc=es"
password-hash {CLEARTEXT}
authz-policy to <- SASL Proxy Authorization
** the regexp is a little differnt from the doc becasu svn adds its
realm like @realm and it must be removed.
added special user:
# cat subversion2.ldif
dn: uid=subversion,ou=People,dc=pic,dc=es
uid: subversion@pic
cn: subversion
objectClass: account
objectClass: posixAccount
objectClass: top
userPassword: plaintextpassword
loginShell: /bin/bash
uidNumber: 70000
gidNumber: 1307
homeDirectory: /home/subversion
gecos: mail
saslAuthzTo: ldap:///ou=People,dc=pic,dc=es??sub?(organizationName=PIC) <- SASL Proxy Authorization
** in our case, we want subversion to act as any user with
organizationName=PIC. You could add your own ldap search.
cat /usr/lib64/sasl2/slapd.conf
auxprop_plugin: slapd
** this should remove warnings in messages, but seems that it does not work.

finally, your user must have its password in plaintext:
$ svn co svn://$SVNSERVER/test
Reino de autentificación: <svn://$SVNSERVER:3690> pic
Usuario: arnaubria
Clave de 'arnaubria':

ATTENTION! Your password for authentication realm:

For testing:
# ldapwhoami -ZZ -U subversion@pic -Y DIGEST-MD5
SASL/DIGEST-MD5 authentication started
Please enter your password:
SASL username: subversion@pic
SASL SSF: 128
SASL data security layer installed.
dn:uid=subversion,ou=people,dc=pic,dc=es
SASL-PROXY
# ldapwhoami -ZZ -U subversion@pic -Y DIGEST-MD5 -X u:arnaubria

Please enter your password:
SASL username: u:arnaubria
SASL SSF: 128
