I'm confused; does our default 'make' target automatically try to
bulid the swig bindings now? If so, I must have missed the change.

If it's true, this is a Bad Thing. The swig-py bindings *require* apr
threads, but that apr feature isn't always available. Meanwhile, svn
itself does *not* require threads. And now people with non-thready
systems suddenly can't build svn... bad bad bad bad bad.
