The above must certainly use apr-0.9.5 (or even earlier, I don't 
remember exactly)

That one certainly requires apr-1.0 (or newer :) ), but the other one is 
found first,
and it's not binary compatible so the loading fails.

You can try to debug this by issuing a 'ldd 
/long/path/sw/lib/libsvn_subr-1.so.0'
in the shell and within the cgi to see the differences.
