I would guess that they use only libraries that are found in a library path 
that is automatically searched (eg. /lib and /usr/lib in linux).  They also 
have a lot less dependencies.  rsync has far fewer dependencies than 
subversion, but I'm not sure what the unison dependencies look like.

On my system:

$ ldd `which rsync` | wc -l
6
$ ldd `which svn` | wc -l
40

My suspicion, as I just mentioned, is that svn uses libraries outside of /lib 
and /usr/lib and that the others do not.  Can you confirm this?
