The contents of the .svn dirs are modified by Subversion, so it wouldn't make sense to try to get it to ignore them. They're full of meta-info. .svn/text-base/ contains a clean copy of everything, for instance, and it's these files that are compared to your working copy in order to discern what's been changed.
One can checkout an entire site without them (say, for uploading to production or tarring up an archive) by doing "svn export ..." Note that you'll want to export to somewhere other than your working directory. You can also copy a subversion working dir without the .svn dirs by using "rsync -C ..."
