compiling server: mod_dav_svn/log.c:196: too few arguments?

Hi, (Sorry if this is the wrong list: I checked FAQs and list archives and
could find no answer to this or a better place to post).

I'm trying to compile Subversion client and server taken from SVN today.
The db4 and apache compiles go fine, but subversion bombs out with a
parameter count mismatch in log.c.

I've documented - for my own feeble memory - the process I used to get as
far as I did. Any hints as to where I went wrong much appreciated!

1) Make a home for the build

$user SVN_BUILD_ROOT=$HOME/svn
$user mkdir $SVN_BUILD_ROOT

2) Get svn client binary

user$ mkdir $SVN_BUILD_ROOT/svn-client-binary
user$ cd $SVN_BUILD_ROOT/svn-client-binary
user$ ncftp ftp://marcus.debian.net/pub/svn/clients/linux/
ncftp> get svn-<version>-i386.bz2
ncftp> <CTRL-D>
user$ bunzip2 *.bz2
user$ chmod 755 svn*
user$ cd ..

3) Get latest svn souces from svn archive with svn binary

user$ mkdir $SVN_BUILD_ROOT/svn-svn
user$ cd $SVN_BUILD_ROOT/svn-svn

Here make sure that LD_LIBRARY_PATH is unset, or this will
fail with a cryptic error message.

user$ $SVN_BUILD_ROOT/svn-archive/svn* checkout \
> http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk -d svn

4) DB4

([footnote] db4 can be compiled - but not installed - as
part of the subversion build process. But it is also needed
for the Apache build process, so it does need to be done
separately.)

Download the sources for Berkeley DB version 4 and connect
them into the Subversion sources:

user$ mkdir $SVN_BUILD_ROOT/db4
user$ cd $SVN_BUILD_ROOT/db4
user$ tar xzf db*.tar.gz
user$ cd $SVN_BUILD_ROOT/db4/db*/
user$ cd build_unix
user$ ../dists/configure --prefix=/usr/server/opt/db4
user$ make
user$ su
password: <root_password>
user# make install

5) Apache

user$ mkdir $SVN_BUILD_ROOT/apache-cvs
user$ cd $SVN_BUILD_ROOT/apache-cvs
user$ cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@cvs.apache.org:/home/cvspublic login
password: anoncvs
user$ cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@cvs.apache.org:/home/cvspublic co httpd-2.0
user$ cd httpd-2.0/srclib
user$ cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@cvs.apache.org:/home/cvspublic co apr
user$ cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@cvs.apache.org:/home/cvspublic co apr-util
user$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/server/opt/db4/lib

([footnote] Although option '--with-berkeley-db' will be
used in a moment, it fails to be correctly propogated to
srclib/pcre, so setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH is the easiest way
to have it propogated.)

user$ ./buildconf
user$ ./configure --enable-dav --enable-so \
> --prefix=/usr/server/opt/apache2 \
> --with-dbm=db4 --with-berkeley-db=/usr/server/opt/db4 --enable-ssl

([footnote] There may be libraries required by Subversion
client binaries, so this path makes the most sense (until I know
better ;-))

user$ make depend
user$ make
user$ su
password: <password>
user# export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/server/opt/db4/lib
user# sh /usr/server/opt/apache/bin/apachectl start

6) Neon

user$ mkdir $SVN_BUILD_ROOT/neon
user$ cd $SVN_BUILD_ROOT/neon
user$ lynx -dump http://www.webdav.org/neon/neon-0.19.3.tar.gz \
> > neon-0.19.3.tar.gz
user$ tar xzf neo*

 ([footnote] Subversion's own build will build Neon, after we make
 a symlink in a moment.)

7) Subversion itself!

user$ cd $SVN_BUILD_ROOT/svn-svn
user$ ln -s ../neon/neon-0.19.3 neon
user$ ln -s ../apache/httpd-2.0/srclib/apr .
user$ ln -s ../apache/httpd-2.0/srclib/apr-util .
user$ PATH=$PATH:/usr/server/opt/apache2/bin

 ([footnote] If Apache can't be found then a client only version
 will be built. But this is not enough!)

user$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/server/opt/db4/lib

 ([footnote] Without this, db4 will not be linkable to.)

user$ sh ./autogen.sh

 ([footnote] This complained that it was not going to build
 a server.)

user$ ./configure --prefix=/usr/server/opt/subversion \
> --with-apxs=/usr/server/opt/apache2/bin/apxs --with-dbm=db4 \
> --with-berkeley-db=/usr/server/opt/db4 --enable-ssl

 ([footnote] '--enable-ssl' did not seem to make any difference;
 a status message half way through the configure reported
 that SSL would not be used. Additionally nor would zlib!)

user$ make clean
user$ make

-- This is where, about 10 minutes into the compile, it all went
wrong! With the following error message:

/bin/sh /home/alexis/svn/svn-svn/svn/libtool --silent --mode=compile gcc -DLINUX=2 -D_REENTRANT -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500 -D_BSD_SOURCE -D_SVID_SOURCE -g -O2 -pthread -I/usr/server/opt/apache2/include -I./subversion/include -I. -I/usr/server/opt/apache2/include -I/home/alexis/svn/apache-cvs/httpd-2.0/srclib/apr-util/include -I/usr/server/opt/db4/include -I/home/alexis/svn/apache-cvs/httpd-2.0/srclib/apr-util/xml/expat/lib -I/home/alexis/svn/svn-svn/svn/neon/src -I./expat-lite -I/usr/server/opt/db4/include -o subversion/mod_dav_svn/log.lo -c subversion/mod_dav_svn/log.c

subversion/mod_dav_svn/log.c:196: too few arguments to function `apr_brigade_create'
make: *** [subversion/mod_dav_svn/log.lo] Error 1
leda$

Can anybody help please? Or point me at a Apache/SVN version combination
which works? Many thanks!

Alexis
