Can you file a bug on this one?

That is fixed already for 0.9.5 and in the 0.9.5-snapshot included in
recent SVN tarballs AFAIK...

I'd try and use the APR snapshot included in the SVN tarball since it's
more recent.

I'm a bit confused by this one: did you regenerate the configure script?
At least subversion-1.0.4/configure seems to cope with this correctly:

if test -r "$cache_file"; then
  # Some versions of bash will fail to source /dev/null (special
  # files actually), so we avoid doing that.
  if test -f "$cache_file"; then
...

not the text you included below?
