The topic has come up a few times recently (on users@ and dev@), but
there is no HOWTO yet. Just the documentation that's always been there,
scripts that folk use, and folks who attempted it before and can share
their war stories...
You have several starting points:
* the INSTALL file
* the buildbot build scripts
(trunk/tools/buildbot/, trunk/build/hudson/, maybe other places)
* the build scripts shipped with TortoiseSVN, SharpSVN, etc
(http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.subversion.devel/119374)
* a makefile I posted on this list some time ago, for use with VC Express
(http://svn.haxx.se/users/archive-2009-07/0764.shtml)
Please feel free to follow up (here or on #svn-dev) if you have any
questions.

(yes, it would be nice to have an HOWTO. Or just to have all relevant
information/pointers in one place. Or to otherwise ease/automate the
"set up a build env" process.)
