Thanks for the feedback, I wrote those docs in TortoiseSVN a few
years ago now, and it looks like things have changed. I'm surprised
it took you so long to figure out, as when you start svnserve from the
command line, the error dialog clearly shows the missing libraries.
Unfortunately, as I already have Subversion\bin in my environment
path, those libraries aren't reported as missing, so it wasn't until
I cleared my path that the problem was highlighted.
I have sent a patch for the docs to the TortoiseSVN mailing list.
peace
