Because the .dsp's pass the -D AP{R,U,I}_DECLARE_STATIC options to the
compiler, which tells the APR headers to declare its public functions
without DLL linkage. If you want to link with the APR DLLs, you have to
remove those option from the .dsps.

This really isn't a Subversion question, it's a Windows programming
question.
