Re: Error compiling with serf 1.3.1 on Windows

Okay, I succeeded in building serf 1.3.1 by executing:

  scons APR=..\httpd-2.4.4\srclib\apr
APU=..\httpd-2.4.4\srclib\apr-util OPENSSL=..\openssl-1.0.1e
ZLIB=..\zlib-1.2.8

But I don't know enough about the svn build system to teach it not to
try building serf itself. So I still get the same error.

I hope someone else can make the necessary changes to the (windows)
build generator for this.
