Ruby makefile maker (not really [PATCH] INSTALL...)

Sorry.

First, the Subject line of my post was bogus.  My bad.

Second, would someone check to make sure that all of the libraries I'm 
requiring are actually required?  They're listed on line 23, and are libX, 
where is in:

apr dl mm crypt pthread svn_subr neon svn_delta expat svn_client svn_wc svn_ra

Thanks.

I'd say go ahead and add it. When this stuff all stabilizes, then we'll
integrate the Ruby bindings into the top-level Makefile. The JNI bindings
all all the various SWIG bindings have the same issues.

At some point, we'll want to make portions of the bindings dependent upon
whether the FS was built or not.

Thanks.  I have a few comments if you want to refine
extonf.rb more.  It would be great if you could address
those and make extconf.rb more generalized.  Then it could
be added to the repository.

The main reason is that I haven't had time to improve my
extconf.rb.  Another reason is that since Subversion has
only one central Makefile, I wanted to compile Ruby binding
from that Makefile.  However, it would be nice for some user
to be able to just check out Ruby bindings and build it
without reconfiguring whole Subversion again, so I'm not
against adding extconf.rb to the repository.

Actually, svn.so is the name of the library.  Other Ruby
DSOs are named similar way like zlib.so and digest.so.

So do I. :-)

Perhaps it needs dir_config(svn) so that one can specify
--with-svn-dir=/opt/svn or something.

There are libsvn_fs and libsvn_repos missing.  And apr stuff
should come from apr-config --libs.  Also, CFLAGS should
come from apr-config --cflags instead of hardcoding -pthread and -O.
