I've made my own build scripts with NAnt for Subversion and all its
libraries (including apr, neon, zlib, ...). It even works for x64
builds. And of course, it's compiler independent.
If you want, you can have a look at
http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/svn/tortoisesvn/trunk/ext/build/

It currently only builds the svn.exe client since I don't need the other
tools. I only need the libraries to build TSVN. But it shouldn't be that
much of work to make those scripts build everything.
