I think you should read the INSTALL file, and possibly start a new thread
quoting exactly *how* your build is failing, and explaining exactly what you
want to do.

The short version is:

ra_dav requires neon
ra_dav over SSL requires a neon which has been told to build against openssl

ra_svn requires no extras

ra_local with FSFS requires no extras
ra_local with BDB requires (obviously) BDB
