Doctor, it hurts when I do that?

Since SVK doesn't store CVS/ or .svn/ folders (or other cruft) in your
checkouts, it instead stores the paths that contain checkouts in
~/.svk/config
You could make the paths on both machines the same with some symlinks
on Mac OS X (probably) or you could investigate svk's floating
checkout support (which I _think_ would work for you here, but I
haven't used).
