  Yes, if I add "LDFLAGS+= -rpath /usr/local/lib/apache2", `svn' works. But "make install" fails: libtool denies to install "mod_dav_svn.la" into "/isr/local/libexec/apache2" in such case. it want "/usr/local/lib/apache2"!

  So, it is not a soultion :(

  May be it is possible to override this?

 I'm repeating: IMHO, it is best solution. But I could not change this.
