Aye, it was na a bonnie patch.

But I'm afraid Subversion can't just use APR's CFLAGS. For one thing,
the include paths will be all wrong. I'm beginning to think we have this
configury stuff turned inside out.

I like the way configure is done for GCC or the GNU toolchain: you can
drop new packages almost unchanged into the top dir, and they get
automatically configured and built.

P.S.: Alexanre, if you're following this, I'm sure you have a few
illuminating comments to make. I'd be mich obliged if you'd share them.
Thanks!
