Did you install from the Fedora rpm packages or from somewhere else?
The latest subversion for FC6 would appear to be 1.4.3-2.fc6. That
rpm requires libcom_err.so.2:
$ rpm -qp --requires subversion-1.4.3-2.fc6.i386.rpm | grep libcom
libcom_err.so.2
Which is provided by e2fsprogs-libs:
$ rpm -q --whatprovides libcom_err.so.2
e2fsprogs-libs-1.39-7.fc6

I haven't logged into my FC6 system in a few weeks or so, but svn
worked the last time I tried it, using what I believe to be the
current version. It is possible some update since then has broken
things and I haven't noticed because I haven't logged in and updated
that system.

I think something is amiss on your system, though I'm not sure what
that is. Do any of the following commands report anything
interesting?
$ rpm -q --requires subversion | grep libcom
$ rpm -V subversion
$ locate libcom_err.so.3
$ rpm -q --whatprovides libcom_err.so.3
Also, what's the exact error you get when you run the svn command (and
the command you're running)?
