On my buildbot servers, I set the HOME environment variable when I run twistd:

https://github.com/ryandesign/macports-infrastructure/blob/master/ports/sysutils/net.macports.buildmaster/files/net.macports.buildmaster.plist.in

https://github.com/ryandesign/macports-infrastructure/blob/master/ports/sysutils/net.macports.buildworker/files/net.macports.buildworker.base.plist.in

https://github.com/ryandesign/macports-infrastructure/blob/master/ports/sysutils/net.macports.buildworker/files/net.macports.buildworker.ports.plist.in

So, that's the directory in which the .subversion directory would be located.
