Andreas,

Thanks for the pointer!!! I had to replace 3 ltmain.sh's in the apache dir,
and 2 in the svn dir; plus the make distclean, configure, make's in both
places. And it all compiles now! :-)

BTW, I think there is a semi-bug in the svn INSTALL doc. While all the info
needed is there, it's really in a bad order. Or if you prefer, I think there
is a much better order for the info. One can not read from top to bottom
doing the appropriate commands as listed. Case in point:

I started reading thru, saw the dependencies, took care of them, which
included getting, building, and installing apache-2. Then I ran "sh
autogen.sh", then the configure, then the make. While the make was going, I
read ahead to see what I'd have to do next. It was then that I found the
"Making and Installing the Subversion Server". That forced me to backup and
clean out the apache build, now run ./buildconf, another configure with 2
extra options, then a make, and an install. Then come back into svn, do a
clean, autogen, configure, make, and install.

My point being, if I need special build instructions for apache, you need to
mention that a lot higher in the doc (like the first time you mention building
apache {e.g. If you plan to run a svn server, you need extra configure options
[list them or "see below"].}), then I wouldn't have had to build everything
twice (which also may have had an influence on my build problem, but I can't
tell).

Thanks again for the help. If I find any other issues while testing, I'll
report back.

Kevin
