Import subversion-base-1.7.5 as wip/subversion17-base.

The goal of the Subversion project is to build a version control system that
is a compelling replacement for CVS in the open source community. The software
is released under an Apache/BSD-style open source license.

This package is based on the devel/subversion and devel/subversion-base
ones present in pkgsrc. It tries to keep as much as possible to them
