To answer my own questions for posterity:
1) My build script works fine. There may be a simpler way.
2) I don't see segfaults with http-library = serf under rc11.
There's still the disparity in output when accessing non-existent
directories; e.g.
~/tryrc11> vi ~/.subversion/servers # set http-library = neon
~/tryrc11> svn ls http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/snorf
svn: URL 'http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/snorf' non-existent in
that revision
~/tryrc11> vi ~/.subversion/servers # set http-library = serf
~/tryrc11> svn ls http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/snorf
~/tryrc11>
This disparity isn't causing me any grief at this time, but might be a
canary for devs in the know.
