sudo make install

Nuff said!

Oh, wait… there’s a problem with misconfigured CA certificates…

cd ~/Development/svn-install
wget https://distfiles.macports.org/MacPorts/MacPorts-2.3.3-10.10-Yosemite.pkg

Run the MackPorts*.pkg…

xcode-select --install

Then…

sudo /opt/local/bin/port install curl-ca-bundle

Then…

sudo -s
cd /System/Library/OpenSSL/certs/
ln -s /opt/local/etc/openssl/cert.pem cert.pem
cd /usr/local/etc/openssl/certs
ln -s /opt/local/etc/openssl/cert.pem cert.pem

Testing:

openssl s_client -connect www.progclub.org:443 -CApath /opt/local/etc/openssl/

Using MacPorts OpenSSL:

sudo port install openssl
cd ~/Development/svn-install/subversion-1.8.10/serf/
scons APR=/usr/local APU=/usr/local OPENSSL=/opt/local PREFIX=/usr/local
sudo scons PREFIX=/usr/local install

Done!
