Problem building Subversion on RHEL-5

Hello Subversion users,

I hope you can point me in a positive direction.
I am having trouble building subversion with Neon.

The error portion of the build is as follows.
I have put in the blank lines between each line just to be more readable.
It obviously dies trying to find something during a load, and seems to
complain about mixing a 'shared' with a 'local' object.

It says something about recompiling with '-fPIC' -- where would that
go and why doesn't it figure that out? I have done really standard
things including using the neon in the subversion-deps-1.5.3 file that
goes along with the latest subversion-1.5.3 tar file and put it in
the subversion source directory. It seems to find that OK. Is
something else missing?

I just wouldn't expect to need an extra compiler flag that isn't
put there by the configure unless something is wrong.

So, any help and advice will be appreciated.
Thanks,

////jerry
