Is it a problem to just keep the current build option?
(+1 on making the amalgamation default on Windows)

The amalgamation build makes it impossible to re-use Sqlite from
applications that use both Subversion and Sqlite (Requiring them to link to
two separate copies).

The current method works for at least my automated build and TortoiseSVN's,
so why break it?
