When we added the multi-DB code to apr-util, it will detect the
Berkeley DB libraries and link against the libraries automagically.
Previously, you had to ask to link against Berkeley DB. So, httpd
will now link against it. And, if it isn't the same version that
Subversion will end up seeing, this problem will occur.

I don't think so. httpd's run-time path takes precedence unless
overriden by LD_PRELOAD. -- justin
