Hey Olli,

I think that fixing the loose dependency on subversion is a good
thing, the rest I don't agree with.

We don't want to help people to create ports that fetch sources from
svn directly, and replacing a BUILD_DEPENDS line with a USE_SVN= perl
doesn't sound that useful to me.

A script that fetches sources, creates a tarball and all that could be
a nice addition to Tools/scripts though.
