Yup, I came across this when I upgraded to Ubuntu Feisty. This could
be a big issue.

Fortunately there's a simple workaround.

The attached config file fixes this using a DllMap -- it just needs to
be dropped into the same directory as
MonoDevelop.VersionControl.Subversion.dll. It might work universally,
as Mono does scan around for differently-named libraries (could
someone with only libsvn_client-1.so.0 try it?), or the configure
script could generate it.
