Apparently, using a SSL-enabled version of subversion requires using a little more then what is included in the subversion-deps package. Of course, one needs to get OpenSSL themselves, but neon which is the piece of the puzzle one needs to connect all three together (and is included in the deps package) isn't the version one needs to use the SSL feature. To use SSL connections with subversion, you cannot use the included neon package. Instead, you have to go get neon-0.25.5, and replace the included one from the subversion-deps package and recompile the entire thing.
Thank you subversion team for sending out a incompatible version for everyone to use. I'm sure it makes everyone happy to have such a easy installation, only to find it don't work as advertised.
EDIT: Well, after recompiling and installing all this software, subversion using SSL still don't work. Nice. Now, how am I supposed to checkout things from sourceforge without being able to access https?
