For a while, I would have been upset.  I was building SVN from fink, even
though I was using a private Perl as /usr/local/bin/perl.  And since the Perl
bindings have to be built when the SVN package is built, it was being built
against the core Perl, which I didn't use, so I couldn't use the SVN bindings.

Now, I'm building SVN from darwinports, which builds its own Perl, and I have
~/bin/git-svn wrap the /opt/git/bin/git-svn passing it the /opt/local/bin/perl
instead of the first Perl in the path.  And it all just works.  I suppose
I could have done that before too. :)
