Good idea.  This is what I do (although the packaged version I use for 
daily work actually is compiled from SVN, too).  Just install it to 
~/bin/ and call it with the appropriate command and you can test while 
still leaving your main installation intact.

Hm, I wonder what the implications would be both in terms of work and 
benefits to the project and the users.
