I did not and could not lauch apache as root, that is why I recompiled the
chroot so I could use my build env as a non-root user.

Specfiles herein:

Please rip them apart.
Known issues:
1. python2.3 does not provide /usr/bin/python (breaks yum until you fix the #!
line)
2. subversion has issues with swig at the moment and no attempt to make the perl
or python parts.
3. subversion makes no attempt to use bdb.
4. the binary subversion-tools rpm depends on the unbilt subversion-perl rpm.
5. subversion build test are slow!
