Why does it need to be in a tarball? Isn't it simpler to just grab from
an SVN tag?

There are many benefits to a reproducable build. Also consider that
Asterisk is often part if a bigger product. Asterisk is essentially not
a PBX, but rather a PBX building toolkit. It is very customizable and
can do many things. And therefore can be integrated in many products.

One of those products is a binary distribution by Digium: AsteriskNow. 

So it seems that some others do see the need. I suggest not to start 
YAHW on that subject :-)
