You can specify "HEAD" as the version, so:

   ./dist.sh HEAD '' branches/0.18

Is (I think) what you want. That script has grown so many nasty
band-aids, it's ridiculous. The whole thing should be converted to a
real scripting language with get-opt support so that we can do:

   ./dist.py --revision HEAD --path branches/0.18

and let the tarball name be derived with the '' cmd-line padding.
