The subversion build process, on Solaris, at least, is _broken_. It does
_not_ work. To hack around enough to get it to work, I had to do the
following ./configure line:

CC=gcc3.2 LDFLAGS="-R/opt/local/BerkeleyDB4/lib -L/opt/local/svn/lib
 -R/opt/local/svn/lib" ./configure --prefix=/opt/local/svn 
--with-berkeley-db=/opt/local/BerkeleyDB4

Every single entry in LDFLAGS should have been created by default by
the configure script. This isn't a difficult problem - there's plenty
of packages out there that manage this.

Apologies if my frustration coloured my comments. I _do_ intend to both make
Solaris packages of this, and also attempt to fix the configuration issues.

Is the experimental libtool option what I should work on, or the existing 
libtool?

Thank you for your constructive comments.  They are really phrased
nicely to motivate someone to fix things...

Note that probably none of the core developers are using Solaris on 
a regular basis.  Last time I built on Solaris, I did have problems,
but not of this kind*.  I did use LDFLAGS=-R but only for berkeley db,
openssl, zlib (for neon).  I had to do the same for httpd-2.0.
