Why do you want to? Compiling libraries internally for specific applicatons is begging for version skew issues,and difficulties in providing feature fixes for components: any upgrades to zlib would force you to recompile Subversion. While local libraries are sometimes needed because the system component is incompatible (such as some of the historical SQLite issues on RHEL for Subversion), it's rarely desirable.
