I think I already have svn in the gnustep-devel package, but otherwise it looks 
fine.

I don’t know if that’s right and I’m not sure it matters much, but it might.

The issue is Windows is very very finicky.  You can get the problems you are 
seeing if something like the libtiff library is compiled with the wrong flag 
(I’ve had similar issues where that was the problem). It’s very difficult to 
figure out what might be wrong, except by going back to a system that is known 
to work and slowly adding things until it breaks.

FYI, I never use Windows.  I just make the installer because no one else does.
