Re: SVN Build issue(s)

First off, we normally use the dev@subversion.tigris.org list for discussion,
and reserve the svn@ list for commit emails. Now, see comments below.

If you have apr and apr-util in the subversion source tree, you shouldn't need
to use the --with-apr[-util] switches. Our configure system should "Just
Work"

Not sure what is happening here, I've never had a problem with it.

I'm not really up on the swig bindings stuff, so I'm at a loss here. I do
know that if configure can't find swig, it won't try to build that stuff, so
maybe removing swig from your path will help (unless you planned to use the
swig stuff :).

I would guess that it is a swig issue, maybe you don't have the latest and
greatest swig installed, or it is installed in a non-standard way, and we're
not picking up its include paths properly.
