Disabling the pcre testsuite (commenting it out in
build-svn-deps-win.pl) gets me a bit further. There is a configure
option --disable-stack-for-recursion, but I don't know how to pass
that option to the pcre build given the cmake calls in
build-svn-deps-win.pl). So I just disabled the testsuite invocation
for now.

Next, openssl gets built successfully.

After that, I think it's the httpd build, but that fails with "Error:
The specified project must be converted before it can be built.". This
is the last part of the output:

[[[

(I'm using VS 2010, so perhaps that's the problem? Why are the
projects "only" converted to 2005?)
