Yeah, no opinion here either. I started out with (a copy of) that
Makefile when I first tried to get svn built on Windows. I still use
my own local copy (which I copy around every time I start building a
new checkout/tarball), so I don't keep a close eye on the checked-in
version.

Anyway, I consider deps versions in there not actually "recommended
versions", but more "examples". When I start a new build, I usually
check what the latest versions are that I have already laying around
of those deps, and sometimes I do a quick google / website check to
see if one of them needs updating.
