I tried this back in the Subversion-0.35.1 days and could not do it
because I hit the wall with Neon. However, I managed to compile the
following packages:
zlib-1.2.1
db-4.2.52
OpenSSL-0.9.7c
OpenSSH-3.7.1p2
I attach the file "svn-mingw.txt" which tells you how to compile this
packages. It should give you a flying start.

You will probably need some C knowledge in order figure out the rest.
Google is a good friend here as well. I'll try to do this again as soon
as I have some time. Please inform us if you make some progress.
Good Luck!
