 I think using a RunBeforeJob shell script would be the best way to handle 
this, providing Bacula fully supports using '@' to call external files within a 
Include{} or Exclude{} statement.

  Depending on the number of directories with a '.svn' sub-directory, you could 
create a text file from the shell script to use in either place.

 Include {
        Options {
                ....
        }
        @/path/to/file/listing/directories
 }

 OR

 Exclude {
        @/path/to/file/listing/directories
 }

 Then inside '@/path/to/file/listing/directories' you would simply have 
multiple lines of 'File ='

 File = /home/user1/svn-trunk-stuff
 File = /home/user2/svn-branch-stuff

 And so on.

 And remember to backup before, and test the config after, you make any 
changes! :)
