Hi, I believe this was discussed previously, but it is not possible to compile GNU APL straight from the tar source due to `buildtag.hh` requiring an svn tag to exist, and the tar archive does not include svn information
```
$ ./configure
...
configure: creating ./src//buildtag.hh
svn: E155007: '/tmp/tmp.7tYePl5Ssi/trunk-git/src/Archive.cc' is not a working
copy
```
`src/buildtag`:
```
...
ARCHIVE_SVNINFO=`svn info Archive.cc | grep "Last Changed Rev" \
| awk -F : '{print $2;}'`
...
```
Not sure what the fix for this should be, but it's hard to package this up (on
gentoo) when it requires the revision control data not shipped with the package
to compile.
