Note that checked out source should work without svn (think about source
tree copied to a machine without network access).  Gaby proposed
script running on the svn server and that should be fine.  Somebody
just has to work out how to install such script on SourceForge.
Also, while script should be simple testing on SourceForge may be tricky,
so somebody having an svn server should probably first test such
script on their own server and only later install it on SourceForge.
