Build on BeOS

Well, on BeOS for the i386, R4.5 (truly ancient), I get the following
error when I build subversion:

/bin/sh ../../libtool --silent --mode=link gcc -Wmissing-prototypes -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Wpointer-arith -Wwrite-strings -Wshadow -Wredundant-decls -DSVN_DEBUG -DAP_DEBUG -g -Wall -o svnadmin main.o ../../subversion/libsvn_fs/libsvn_fs.la ../../subversion/libsvn_subr/libsvn_subr.la ../../apr/libapr.la /boot/home/subversion/apr/shmem/unix/mm/libmm.la ../../expat-lite/libexpat.la
libtool: link: `../../subversion/libsvn_fs/libsvn_fs.la' is not a
valid libtool archive

However, if I just do make check at that point, it goes through a
whole bunch of tests, until it gets to that same error again, when it
tries to do the tests in svnadmin.

Does anyone know what would be causing this?

Also, how can I tell if the tests are operating properly? The output
seems reasonable, but I can't tell for sure.

Thanks
