Yes, that's what we say to do in the INSTALL file.

It's also the reason I only build statically, and just symlink
/usr/local/bin/svn into my working copy. :-)

Something about libtool.... when it links, it somehow always finds
installed libraries with the same name *first*, rather than the ones
you just built in the working copy.

Maybe Mo can tell us why it behaves this way, or how to fix this.
