The subversion-deps package contains apr and apr-util version 0.9.x,
but apache 2.2.x uses apr and apr-util 1.2.x, and subversion and
apache2 must be using the same version of apr and apr-util, else
things explode. So to your subversion ./configure line you should add
--with-apr=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apr-1-config and --with-apr-util=/
usr/local/apache2/bin/apu-1-config
