Here is the ticket requesting we no longer unconditionally use that option, thereby allowing Leopard users to use the bundled svn instead of having to install MacPorts' -- at least for ports not fetching via https or for ports fetching from https with valid certificates.

Unfortunately, certificate validation seems to be broken in Lion's
/usr/bin/svn, so we would either have to keep using --trust-server-cert
there or require port:subversion.
