not really... only thing i've found that looks relevant is this
commit... it does seem to apply to the 3.5 branch:

 git cherry-pick 28cb2ca7956cd79704089ad4ca7cedd3dc0c207f

not sure if that has anything to do with your problem, you can try to
"(cd svx && make -r clean)" and cherry-pick the patch and see if that is
better.

i wonder if this problem is something that is also related to the "make"
program that is used (like your other problem with Java classpath
was)... the 3.5 release branch was maintained at a time when the build
system used "cygwin paths", and with commit
f4f4e3c050b117a8bfaa95a865b3b37bcb637516 in May 2012 we switched to
using "native" paths (with drive letters), which requires the LO patched
make... i am not sure if it works to build the 3.5 release branch with
the LO patched make because i did not have a Windows VM back in those days.
