Subversion 1.4 problems on Windows

Hi,

When I try a checkout/update with my build of the Subversion trunk, I'll 
get the following error:

svn: In directory 'D:\Development\SVN\TSVNLAN\ext\Subversion\www'
svn: Can't change executability of file 
'D:\Development\SVN\TSVNLAN\ext\Subversion\www\validate.sh': Partial 
results are valid but processing is incomplete

Of course it's not possible to change the executability of a file on 
Windows.
(I'm updating my working copy of the Subversion project here).

Ok, I admit I'm linking against apr-1.2.6, apr-util-1.2.6 and 
apr-iconv-1.1, but from what I've read on this mailing list that should 
not be a problem (at least not for a client using those dll's privately).

svn --version
svn, version 1.4.0 (dev build)
    compiled Apr  9 2006, 11:25:54

Thanks a lot for the clarification. Now at least I know that it doesn't 
work and can stop trying.

Yes, using APR 1.x on Win32 is broken due to a bug in Subversion --
see the long thread with a subject of: "[PATCH] Adjust more_finfo() on
Win32 to behave more like its Unix/Linux counterpart".

It started out thinking the problem was in APR (there is a Win32
permissions problem in APR 1.x), but it turned out that Subversion
shouldn't be using those API's on Win32 anyway so Brane is working on
a patch to Subversion -- at least that is where it left off as far as
I recall.

Reverted back to the 0.97 versions of the apr libs, and now the
update/checkout works again. Seems Subversion doesn't work with the
latest apr versions, at least not on windows.
