Two things with regard to this. First, changes merged to a release
branch are primarily bugfixes, and should always be backwards
compatible.
Second, if you want to ensure that the revision does not change... pin
to a specific revision. svn:externals supports that natively. As an
example, you can use something like the following:
externals/extras r14722
http://framework.zend.com/svn/framework/extras/branches/release-1.7/library/ZendX
I gave a made-up revision number there, but that's the basic idea -- you
can specify a revision between the local path and the externals path.
