Actually whiteboard is not compiled by default, because there is no one to work on it, and then not enough resources to respond to a huge flow of bugreport.
After a short discussion on IRC, the idea was, in a first time to know what is the actual state of the whiteboard, to undertand if it usable or if everything has to be throwed or restarted ? :
I addeddocumentation on the wiki on how to compile and use it. I started it here : http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/WhiteBoard
If someone found freetime to meet on inkscape whiteboard via jabber and list what work and what don't work today.
Depending of the effort done by people able to compile it with the --enable-whitboard option activated the project could continue or be throuwed out of the inkscape trunk.
I've myself compiled it, was able to connect to jabber server but don't know other one that have whiteboard enable Inkscape.
I will not have time until saturday to test it. If someone can test it with me saturday, I will be happy to share funny crappy drawings. ;)
Else if two people have time to test it and report the results on this page, that's good too...

When I stopped working on the whiteboard it wasnt stable but was able to share most document changes, but didnt share defs / metadata etc
The last time I tested it I have problems during connection that caused crashing.
I finally have enough time to dedicate to working on it, and have started to locally. but I dont think its in a state to be in an experimental release yet

Are you sure you don't want a dedicated SVN branch? :)
using a dscm that has svn integration like git or svk might be a better idea. I believe there is also a bzr mirror on launchpad.
Both local copies and SVN branches are actually bad in that they make it nearly impossible to keep your copy in sync with new changes if you want to merge your stuff incrementally.
