Description:
------------
Given the bug described at http://pecl.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=14749 I still need an ability to use the svn extension from Apache and I'm getting a security error:

svn_auth_set_parameter(): svn error(s) occured\n13 (Permission denied) Can't open file '/root/.subversion/servers': Permission denied

Reproduce code:
---------------
Just use any method, svn_log() for example, from Apache and you'll see the error every time.

Expected result:
----------------
I expect to see a data structure populated with subversion log information.

Actual result:
--------------
svn_auth_set_parameter(): svn error(s) occured\n13 (Permission denied) Can't open file '/root/.subversion/servers': Permission denied

This function already exists and has done for a while, it 
would be great if you could post an actual test script 
though that is causing you problems.

<?php

svn_auth_set_parameter(SVN_AUTH_PARAM_CONFIG_DIR, 
'/www/site/.svn');
print_r(svn_log('/www/site/somefolder'));

Sure... here's what I'm seeing:

<?php 
echo 'SVN Client is ' . svn_client_version(); // line #26 works fine
svn_auth_set_parameter(SVN_AUTH_PARAM_CONFIG_DIR, '/srv/www/htdocs/vhosts/www.andyczerwonka.com/specs/.svn'); // line 27 blows up
?>

When that piece of code executes, I get:

client 10.10.1.1] PHP Warning:  svn_auth_set_parameter(): svn error(s) occured\n13 (Permission denied) Can't open file '/root/.subversion/servers': Permission denied\n in /srv/www/htdocs/vhosts/www.andyczerwonka.com/specs/index.php on line 27

Line 27 is the call to svn_auth_set_parameter

This bug has been fixed in CVS.

In case this was a documentation problem, the fix will show up at the
end of next Sunday (CET) on pecl.php.net.

In case this was a pecl.php.net website problem, the change will show
up on the website in short time.
 
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PECL better.

I've allowed a failed configuration read to continue now, it has nothing to do with what this bug report is and was in a separate bit of code.

To test from the command line for anyone who has seen this issue its:

export HOME=/root/; php /tmp/test.php; export HOME=/home/scott

So which command can I now use and how?
