It could simply be that I do not know the correct way to build APR.
Given that subversion provides the dependencies to me in
subversion-deps it would be nice if:

1) It just builds on windows
2) It is documented how to build APR on windows,
      either directly in a subversion document or a pointer to an APR
document.

Because there are .DSW and .DSP files in the kit I just use them. If
they are supposed to
be created by something. Why include them in the kit?
