I believe that APR does have a problem right now with a source file
#include-ing a non-existant shmem.h. That's the only problem I know
of, but it seems to be non-fatal.

Neon's Win32 build system is out of date (and hence, broken). At
least, it was last time I checked. I believe Branko has some local
mods to that system (and I might even have them as well on my Windows
box) to make Neon build.

Hm. Are you saying you don't know how to turn on external definitions
with MSVC, or that turning them on doesn't work. It certainly is
possible to turn them on. In the Project Settings dialog, to the
"C/C++" tag, choose 'Preprocessor' from the drop-down listbox, and
type "NEON_SSL" in the 'Preprocessor definitions' textfield.

No decision...that's different. Ben, you build with cygwin, what
decision for shared memory do you get these days (it was only recently
that shmem.c was removed from APR).

Patience, dude. I appreciate that you've stuck with us this far given
the problems you're having with the build. Instead of using this
mailing list as a place to blow off steam, though, try using it as a
place to meet other folks, some of whom are probably having the same
problems you are but aren't confident enough to say so. If we all
devote a little more time to finding/fixing the problem, and a little
less time in colorful discussion about things tangential to the
*actual problem itself* -- the whole community will benefit.
Now, I haven't tried to build Subversion on Windows in a couple of
months, but I will find time today to attempt to this again, from
scratch, with no local mods. If I have to make local mods to get it
to work, patches will be distributed to the projects that deserve
them.
