This message is a problem with the neon configure script for OS X /
darwin. The configure script has a section for non-gnu ld linkers
(which is the case on OS X) but has no entry for darwin so it disables
shared library support even if you try to enable it. I do not know how
to fix this the "right" way in autoconf land but, before building
Subversion, you can hack the neon configure script like so:

     # PORTME fill in a description of your system's linker (not GNU ld)
     case $host_os in
>> add the following three lines
     darwin* | rhapsody*)
             ld_shlibs=yes
       ;;
>>

Then, you need to pass the "--enable-shared=yes" configure option into
neon b/c shared is disabled by default. My config line is as follows
(for my purposes, modify as appropriate):

./configure --without-apxs --without-berkeley-db --with-zlib
--enable-shared=yes --enable-swig-bindings=no --with-ssl
