I apply about 13 patches to the upstream sources to create the package 
for Cygwin.

My first hint is to use the binary packages I provide for Cygwin instead 
of compiling it yourself. The latest version is packaged. If you want to 
compile it yourself, I suggest downloading the source package I provide 
and following the directions in 
/usr/share/doc/Cygwin/subversion*.README. The source package also has 
all the patches I apply if you're only interested in that.
