That worked okay for me, on both Gentoo and Debian. (BTW, thanks to
Greg and company for fsfs, which is a lot easier to get working on
non-ideal machines than bdb.)

I just did:

./configure --prefix=$HOME --without-berkeley-db
make
make install
svnadmin create $HOME/svn/my-test-repos --fs-type=fsfs

and started using the test repository

Eek.

Is the error repeatable if you "make clean" then redo the build
process with no false steps?

What OS, gcc, make, and autoconf versions are you using?
