Hmm, I reran the test. With my branch it now properly unpacks into 4.9.0beta. Are you 
sure your defaults.sh has updated both the file version and download id ? If not you are 
probably really downloading 4.7.0beta but renamed to 4.9.0beta by the website software.

I have dropped the gwen patch by the way. It appears to be included in 4.9.0beta.
