Not sure I understand why this happens, since AFAIK Subversion does
not use SSL. Subversion can use Neon, which can use SSL, and
Subversion can be accessed over the svn+ssh protocol, which uses SSL,
but I do not believe the Subversion binaries themselves use SSL.

Looking at ./configure --help, I don't think there is any such option.

Ok. Swig doesn't relate to SSL, of course.

As ./configure --help says, the --with-ssl option is only passed to
the Neon build, and is not used by Subversion itself. Since you've
explicitly asked for no Neon (which means you will not be able to
access http- or https-hosted repositories), --without-ssl is irrelevant.
