can an "svn:externals" refer to, perhaps, a tarball?

  undoubtedly going to embarrass myself with this question, but is
there some way to have an "externals"-like hook to a tarball
somewhere?

  for example, say i want to incorporate busybox-1.00 into a project
and, to save space, i want to leave it as a tarball. there's little
value to uncompressing something like that since it's OSS that we will
*never* modify.

  or is it just not worth the trouble, and i should just unload the
tarball and check it in? (still using an svn:externals to get it)
