Does this
http://git.openembedded.org/bitbake/commit/?id=ebd3ecdb5f3c6d3fe1fad27cbed4d80f4277e92e
work for 1.7 -> 1.8 transition?

It looks like it should from
http://subversion.apache.org/docs/release-notes/1.8.html
but someone should test it before builders will start distributing
downloads directory to PREMIRRORs with working copy format already
upgraded.

Good that we removed subversion-native from ASSUME_PROVIDED :).
