Sorry for the late response. Had to shift priorities the last month
here, before I could get back to this issue.
Thanks for the additional information on ways to build SVN. I quickly
skimmed through the scripts/steps and might use them later when I can't
get the current steps to run...
After build APR myself, it got passed the previous error. However I'm
now stuck with another one and can't make-up what's wrong now... Any
hint (couldn't find any reference on google or in the mail archive):
swig not found; skipping SWIG file generation...
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "gen-make.py", line 325, in <module> main(conf, gentype,
skip_depends=skip, other_options=rest.list)

I maintain one such script as part of SharpSvn (Repository: https://ctf.open.collab.net/svn/repos/sharpsvn/trunk/imports ; username guest; no password). This script uses NAnt, and is used to produce the publicly available binaries for SharpSvn and SlikSvn.
