No SVM support either. I could try to add it I guess; libSVM has Python bindings already.

As far as I know, NLTK has no C dependencies other than its general dependency on NumPy. I think they are keeping the toolkit in pure Python on purpose (but I may be wrong about that). That said there are SVM implementations in pure Python -- PyMVPA, for one.
