Subversion on Mac OS X Server 10.3

Reading the product literature, you’d think this would be easy, but there are actually a number of questions I’ve been unable to answer without just trying it.

There are some helpful webpages, especially Fred Sanchez, but I get the feeling they were designed for the client version of Panther.

Panther Server includes Apache 2 in /opt/apache2.

Can I use that version instead of installing the admittedly more up-to-date packages that Fred is rolling? If so, are any of the dependencies already built and installed by Apple, and which ones?

If I can’t use the Apple-supplied Apache2 on Panther Server, can I use Apple modules on Fred’s compilation of apache2? I’m particularly interested in using mod_auth_apple so I don’t have to manage web accounts seperately from user accounts on the machine.
