I'd like to see something that the Perl folks use in their builds. Since
they use Perforce and get revision numbers and svn has them too, let's put
the revision number of the build into the executable. This'll be handy for
debugging purposes when people email us so they can tell us exactly which
revision they have an issue with. I'd also like to see this in the HTML
output generated by the SVN server.

This is something cvs cannot do.

Best,
Blair
