Do you really need to be rebuilding svn trunk code daily, in order for
your own project to make progress? If not, why not just have *one*
person (you?) build trunk every month or so, and distribute the
libraries via svn.
I can't believe I'm recommending this, since I've spent years telling
people to only put 'non-derivable' stuff (i.e. code) into version
control... but building svn on Windows is Really Really Hard.
