While you can try to set LC_MESSAGES to `C' locale
subversion also supports XML output

  $ echo $(svn info --xml | awk -F\" '/revision/ && ++i > 1 { print $2 }')

Unlike `svnversion' it doesn't show whether the checked out
sources are `M' (modified) or not. Not that I found it useful
compared to `svn st -q' though.
