Version 1.6.10
(Not released, see changes for 1.6.11.)
option selected: subversion's configure script does not detect db4
support in apr-util hence ${PREFIX}/lib/libsvn_fs_base-1.* are not
built and installed.
So what's going on ? Well since devel/apr-util has db4 support with
DSO, apu-1-config does not report db4 libraries, flags, etc.
See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apr-util/+bug/96980
The workaround is to give the argument --with-berkeley-db=... to
subversion's configure script when apr-util package has db4 option
selected. See
http://svn.collab.net/viewvc/svn?view=revision&revision=35017
Do not include logic to auto-enable apr1 if the option apache22 is
defined because apache22 does not appear to be a valid option.
Do not force apr1 if serf is selected. Instead, fail and force the
user to choose consistent options.
No PKGREVISION because apr1 is the default and the resulting package
is unchanged. apr0 support not tested.
Rehsack. apr1 is no longer an option; that's just the way it is.

This changes the buildlink3.mk files to use an include guard for the
recursive include. The use of BUILDLINK_DEPTH, BUILDLINK_DEPENDS,
BUILDLINK_PACKAGES and BUILDLINK_ORDER is handled by a single new
variable BUILDLINK_TREE. Each buildlink3.mk file adds a pair of
enter/exit marker, which can be used to reconstruct the tree and
to determine first level includes. Avoiding := for large variables
(BUILDLINK_ORDER) speeds up parse time as += has linear complexity.
The include guard reduces system time by avoiding reading files over and
over again. For complex packages this reduces both %user and %sys time to
half of the former time.
