What is the wider issue behind this. All this is done just so we have a version number in the Manifest file, is that right? Who uses this version number? If so, then I would say that this should be correct in the .jar we distribute but we should not try and distribute a build.xml that has these bells and whistles. To my knowledge, SVN version number retrieval is buggy anyway - if someone checks out JOSM, makes a change, commits that, then runs the build, the build will still show the pre-commit revision number; only an "svn update" fixes this.
