Ok, I've made the change via "svn propset svn:externals" to make the 
easy-rsa/2.0 directory point to the source svn URL in the 2.1-beta branch.

So you can build your tarball as such:

svn co -r 760 http://svn.openvpn.net/projects/openvpn/trunk/openvpn openvpn
cd openvpn
autoreconf -i -v
./configure
make dist
