There is the svn_load_dirs.pl script but it's not very intuitive to use.
For those who are under Windows, I wrote a wizard based tool that
manages those externals for you.
Its sources (Delphi 2009) are available here:
http://svnwintools.tigris.org/svn/svnwintools/trunk/sources
along with a few other tools.
The tool in itself works well, I'm using it in production every time I
have a new vendor drop.
The project's website at tigris is a whole other story as I did not have
time to create it nor to publish precompiled binaries.
