No, trunk still doesn't work for me. We have differences in the configure
options, but I can't figure out whether one of them may be the cause.

Back in the day I copied the configure options from stsp, and it had
--disable-shared in it. In order to use --with-gnome-keyring I had to remove
--disable-shared. Maybe it's got something to do with that... ?

Here are my configure options:

[[[
./configure --enable-maintainer-mode --with-ssl
--prefix=/home/neels/svn/prefix/trunk-prefix
--with-apr=/home/neels/svn/prefix/apr
--with-apr-util=/home/neels/svn/prefix/apr-util
--with-neon=/home/neels/svn/prefix/neon --without-apxs --with-gnome-keyring
]]]
apr: 1.3.3
apr-util: 1.3.4
neon: 0.28.3
sqlite is installed by binary package: 3.5.9

I've still got the same run skipping the keyring:
