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. :) -- Randal L.
