+1

I'd ask that you make it work with the format of the way it is shipped
in our deps zip file, assuming we are not going to include it in the
source tree.

Personally, I'd also like to see it statically linked in
libsvn_subr-1.dll and not an external DLL as well. If we are going to
build it, then let's not make it possible to load the wrong DLL at
runtime too.
