I had similar issues with the 1.1.3 subversion as shipped with SuSE 9.3

The suggestions I found with google indicated that the neon library was 
compiled without SSL support. This did non seem to be the case, at least 
the spec file seems to have the correct options for me, but after 
rebuilding the neon and subversion rpms, the problem went away. 
Probably there is some missing build dependency in the SuSE spec files, 
though.

Anyway, be sure to configure --with-ssl
