In general, it is helpful for you to specify which version of
subversion you are using.

All I have is hints, you will have to do some poking around on your
system to find the real culprit:

 - '/usr/src/httpd/srclib/apr-util-lexpat' probably shouldn't exist,
   something has created a bogus link line for you, probably a broken
   aprutil install. You will find the variable SVN_APRUTIL_LIBS
   defined in Makefile and used in build-outputs.mk. On my system the
   variable is defined as:
   
SVN_APRUTIL_LIBS = /usr/lib/libaprutil.la -lldap -llber -lgdbm -ldb -lexpat

The variable is set like so:

SVN_APRUTIL_LIBS="`$apu_config --link-libtool --libs`"

(that line is in ac-helpers/aprutil.m4 and $apu_config is, not
surprisingly, the path the apu-config script)

So if you do:
bash-2.05b$ apu-config --link-libtool --libs
 /usr/lib/libaprutil.la -lldap -llber -lgdbm -ldb -lexpat
bash-2.05b$

And get a funny looking set of libs we can blame aprutil. If you just
want a one-time build it may suffice to simply edit the variable,
though there may be other problems lurking.
