[PATCH] gnu: subversion: Download from apache archive site

Attempts to build subversion fail because the version currently in Guix
(1.7.8) is no longer on the apache mirror network.  It turns out that
the apache mirrors keep only a couple of recent versions.  This patch
changes the download location to archive.apache.org, which keeps old
versions around.

What do you think?

Subject: [PATCH] gnu: subversion: Download from apache archive site.

* gnu/packages/subversion.scm (subversion): Download from archive.apache.org,
  where versions are kept for a longer period of time.  Previously, we
  downloaded from the mirrors, which keep only the most recent versions.
