I'm not near my work machine, so this is from memory...  the test suite
requires perl modules I didn't have installed and fails most perl tests
without them — not too worried about this, will install those later this
week.  Also, the requires check for Berkeley-DB 4.2 and 4.5, but only
4.5 and 4.8 are currently offered by Cygwin.  I've had to comment out
the Apache module build since the mod_dav.la was nowhere to be found and
no Cygwin package provides it.

Either that or maybe whether the testsuite that comes with svn confirms
the problem and thus delivers a debuggable testcase.

The ephemeral rebase option I posted patches for in cygwin-apps should
help with that.  Since I should have the same problem, I'll see that I
can adapt the cygport file to use it.

If you still have a test log it might prove helpful.

Thanks, that should help as well if the OP could check if it makes any
difference.
