Sadly, subversion doesn't work correctly on Syllable yet (at least, not for
me). I'll see what I can do & try to figure out if it's even worth it to get
another tree & rebase off that tree.

No, probably not... But the code that is/was there is outdated since
trying to track a seperate private repo for each hardware platform is
more than difficult enough. Certain vendors decided that it was too
much trouble to maintain their code and expected those that still wanted
a multi-os multi-vendor repo to backport their code for them. This
eventually forced all of the vendors to move to private repos.
The place to see the current FreeBSD code is
