You may find these helpful:

http://cygwin-ports.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/cygwin-ports/ports/trunk/libs/apr1/
http://cygwin-ports.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/cygwin-ports/ports/trunk/libs/aprutil1/

Note that the latter assumes dependencies which are not currently in the
distro; you'll need to adjust the configure flags accordingly.
