Linking error with --apxs & separately build apr (Re: configure doesn't see mod_dav)

If you build apr and apr-utils separately and after that httpd and svn
against them, you will get linking error during link phase of
mod_dav_svn.so because subversion try find libtool from httpd's install
directory when in fact it is laying in apr's <inst_root>/build-directory.

I did a quick fix, and made symbolic link:
httpd/build/libtool -> apr/build/libtool,
after that linking and make check (dav) passed happily. However I am not
sure if it is correct solution to use apr's libtool to link
mod_dav_svn.so.

I don't know if this is a fault in apr, httpd or svn.

httpd: 2.0.45
apr: cvs (20030410T170443Z)
apr-util: cvs (20030401T175018Z)
svn: 5598
OS: GNU/Linux
