I'm the maintainer of the bzr related ports in MacPorts. There isn't a
bzr-svn port as it requires the subversion python bindings to be
patched and I've had problems building this  - essentially the version
of swig in MacPorts is too new for the subversion bindings. Also as
subversion 1.5 isn't too far away I haven't spent much time on working
out the problems.

I'm really busy at the moment but if you file tickets at
http://trac.macports.org and assign them to ram at macports.org (so I
don't forget), I'll get round to writing ports for them when I have
more time (in the process of moving at the moment) or have a go at
writing the Portfiles yourself, see http://guide.macports.org.
