When I have checked, archive.apache.org did not have the latest releases
of subversion, so it can't be relied on as a primary upstream source. On
the other hand, primary mirrors only keep the latest releases, and
remove anything else. So the right thing would be to first try to use
those primary mirrors, and fall back to archive if those mirrors no
longer have the version we need.
This problem also shows up with debian upstream.
