http://sources.gentoo.org/viewcvs.py/gentoo-x86/dev-util/subversion/subversion-1.5.5.ebuild?view=markup
contains:
IUSE="apache2 berkdb debug doc +dso emacs extras java nls perl python ruby sasl vim-syntax +webdav-neon webdav-serf"
                                ^^^

(Subversion 1.6.* also has "dso" USE flag.)
