Thanks -- this will be useful for folks to use to try it out.

On the plus side, I was able to build and install subversion-1.1.0-rc1
with no problems on Solaris 2.8.  That's new since last time I looked at
subversion.

On the minus side, it's still slow (initial checkout took 41 minutes,
compared to 8 for CVS, though I can't say for sure how much of that was
due to the different hosts or network connectivity).

On the depends-on-how-you-look-at-it side, it still gobbles up local disk
space with its duplicate copy of everything.  I understand there are good
reasons for doing that.
