For a different approach, would it be possible to have a subversion trigger put the revision number into some file in the repository?

Not easily, to my knowledge. Assuming that the export will be made from a tag, the revision at which the tag was created (along with the path of the tag) could be added through a wrapper script to perform the export.

Of course, if the policy to export from a tag is followed, just having the tag name is also sufficient.
