Merging in Subversion is a major PITA, but fortunately this is about
to change with version 1.5, see this blog entry for details:

Hopefully this will make it easier for us to use more pervasive use of
branches.  This means, for example, that if making a big change, this
can be done in a branch so that trunk remains stable.

If we wanted to be really ambitious, we could build snapshots of each
branch too, but that would be a reasonable amount of work.
