This brings up a question for me. I've heard differing recommendations  
on how to tell the OS which version of an application to use. Bill  
outlines one method. Another method involves simply changing your path  
to include /usr/local/bin and/or other "preferred" directories before  
the standard directories. For example, I have the following in my  
~/.bash_profile:

export PATH="/opt/subversion/bin:/usr/local/bin:$PATH"

Which method is "safest" in the face of OS updates and the like?

Note: I'm using the Mac OS Subversion 1.6 binaries downloaded direct  
from openCollabNet as I just couldn't get the source to compile  
correctly as in the past (openSSL issues). The default install  
location is /opt/subversion/bin.
