Building Subversion on the Mac

OK, so I can get so far ...

svn co http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/subversion/trunk subversion
cd subversion
brew install libtool apr
cp /usr/local/Cellar/libtool/2.4.6_1/share/libtool/build-aux/config.sub
build/
autoconf
./configure --build=x86_64 --prefix=/usr/local --with-openssl --with-ssl
--with-zlib --with-apr=/usr/local/Cellar/apr/1.6.3/
--with-apr-util=/usr/local/Cellar/apr-util/1.6.1/

(Note that I had to config.sub in my Homebrew folders and copy it into the
build/ directory - barfs without it)

.. but it barfs after during the configure step:

<snip/>

checking how to use output level for Ruby bindings tests... normal
checking for ctypesgen.py... none
checking stdbool.h usability... yes
checking stdbool.h presence... yes
checking for stdbool.h... yes
checking for stdint.h... (cached) yes
configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: creating Makefile
config.status: error: cannot find input file: `subversion/libsvn_*/*.pc.in'

I can't see any files ending in .pc.in in any subversion/libsvn_ prefixed
folder (in the checkout). Therefore I'm not surprised the configure step
fails when it's looking for those files.

Any advice would be appreciated.
