The theory is that build-outputs.mk has all the various build instructions,
but the main Makefile chooses which to use. This is why there is @FS_RULES@
and @BUILD_APACHE_RULE@ in the local-all target in Makefile.in.

However, the install target in build-outputs.mk was not so careful, as you
found. It depends unconditionally on libsvn_fs. The "right" thing is to have
install-libs and install-fs-libs. The Makefile.in will then select one or
both for installation.

IOW, a simple bug... not something to go ballistic about.
