Subversion's a bit of a special case, since it's got an apache module
produced by a complex buildsystem which does lots of other things too.
I've got it working on my system, though, and aim to be tidying it up and
releasing a cygwin package soon.

Umm. That is wrong in _so_ many ways.
You've taken a random cygwin dll that isn't even an apache module of any
kind, renamed it to something totally different, and then tried to load it
into a _native windows_ apache server.
