The svn client has the same dependencies as the servers, which is why  
no client-only download has been made available.

You can disable several of the dependencies if you do not need them.  
For example, if you don't want to serve a BerkeleyDB-based repository  
and merely want to access a remove repository, you can use --without- 
bdb when configuring so that you don't need BerkeleyDB. If you don't  
plan to access http- or https-based repositories, I believe you can  
omit Neon and OpenSSL as well.

Here I meant "remote repository" of course.

Incidentally, your mail server is also a colossal pain in the ass:

Finally, if you're upset about having to install Subversion to  
download ffmpeg, why not suggest to the authors of ffmpeg that they  
offer a more conventional and less labor-intensive download  
alternative, such as snapshots or regular releases. Complaining to  
the Subversion users list about the difficulty of installing  
Subversion is probably not the correct approach.
