Ok, I'll just remove the blank line on trunk.

So what did you do to fix it? Remove the preprocessor defines from
just the apr projects or from the Subversion projects too? We need it
defined in Subversion, as well. It seems like apr.h should be testing
it before just defining it, and it also seems like the compiler
shouldn't complain if the definitions are identical, shouldn't it?

I don't believe they are supposed to currently -- Brane has a python
script to gather them all together into a binary release tree and zip
file -- make_dist.py in the build/win32 directory? If we did make it
part of the build process, then we'd need to do it for the generated
.dsp projects as well. But that would be a handy addition, IMO.

I know I would be interested (although I couldn't commit to help
maintaining it much) and we've had several inquiries in the past. I
think people have been pointed to swig and AnkhSvn
(http://ankhsvn.tigris.org) in the past. I'm not sure what it would
take to host it in the bindings tree -- at least a committed
maintainer or two and probably some solid justification as to why swig
wasn't used.

Thanks!
