Hi folks,

is it possible to use git-svn w/ an bare repository (eg. using
an temporary workdir when necessary or directly creating tree
and commit objects w/o going through workdir at all) ?

No.

hmm, can it work with an external workdir ?

I'm running a dozen of mirrors (also from cvs), some from fairly
large and I'd like to get rid of the working copies.

Your only option is a different conversion tool. GSoC resulted in a lot
of code in this direction, but I'm not sure it can do without a workdir.
It is based on svndump

I guess that requires access to the raw repository (on the server),
not just unprivileged svn client access, right ?
