Serf requires them, but in this case, the Subversion build is meant.

That would be overambitious! :) :) :) I simply thought that because serf
needs those switches in it's own compile, I try that, and I got lucky.
However, here is what happens for me:
Steps to reproduce:
svn co https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/subversion/trunk trunk3
cd trunk3
./get-deps.sh
cd apr
./buildconf
cd ../apr-util/
./buildconf
cd ..
./autogen.sh
./configure --enable-maintainer-mode --with-serf=/usr/local/serf
Error message:

checking for stdint.h... yes
checking for unistd.h... yes
configure: serf library configuration via prefix

An appropriate version of serf could not be found, so libsvn_ra_serf
will not be built. If you want to build libsvn_ra_serf, please
install serf 1.2.0 or newer.
configure: error: Serf was explicitly enabled but an appropriate version
was not found.
