I still end up committing most things through a true svn repo, but git-svn lets me handle lots of branches, sane merges, etc. > Other than that, I can't see anything (it's a bit late to look > deeply, I'm just waiting on a couple of things finishing).

I can't really think of a better way than the wget list. The `mkdir xc' could definitely be dropped, though. How you organize the tarballs is your business.
