Arun, the compile error you're seeing is in a code file in serf's test suite, not in the actual serf library.
The easiest way for you to get going, is to skip building the test suite. Just running 'scons', and then 'scons install' should do that, just skip the 'scons check' step. The alternative is to fix your serf 1.3.8 copy. For that you need to get a serf 1.3.8 working copy first: $ svn co https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/serf/tags/1.3.8/ serf1.3.8 In the new working copy, you can now merge the change that fixes this problem from the serf repo. $ svn merge -c 1700013 https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/serf/branches/1.3.x .
