Yes, it's possible, but the latest released apr-util can't detect 4.2
yet. Only the CVS HEAD of apr-util has that code at the moment.

The formula is:

* install DB4.2 somewhere on your system, like in
/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.2

* put /usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.2/lib into /etc/ld.so.conf and run
'ldconfig'

* tell apr-util (either directly, or through apache's configure) to use
--with-berkeley-db=/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.2.

* verify that apr-util really is linked to db4.2 with 'ldd'. :-)

* configure your subversion tree with *no* mention of berkeley db. It
will ask your installed apu-config for info about BDB, so that it links
to the same thing.
