no, I did more to it.. In particular it was pointed out to me that
if you're running in a non-English locale it's possible that "svn info"
isn't printing out the string "Revision: ..." -- so the code would
fail to find the revision.
I changed the Makefile so it runs "svn info" in the C locale to
force it to output English.. So it shouldn't fail anymore.
