For LaTeX, the `build system' is the running of latex (and friends),
so you could have something like

\immediate\write18{%
  echo "\string\newcommand{\string\version}{`/usr/bin/svnversion .`}" > ./ver.tex
}
\input{./ver.tex}

at the top of your main document, and then \version will give you the
output of svnversion (don't forget to give latex the --shell-escape
option to enable \write18)
