are you sure you don't have an installation issue?.

subversion 1.3.0 has been tested against 1.3.28 and 1.3.29, and it seems 
to be working,
well, at least the internal subversion test-suites for perl, python and 
ruby.

still, if you thing there is an issue, the best thing will be try to 
isolate the problem
in one small example that we could test over here.
