Doing an out of source build is looking better - I just did one here
and it worked just fine.

I'm not sure the cpack scheme for source is very helpful - it's easy
and more robust to do an svn export and then tar/gzip.  I've scripted
this at my end, but it'd be easy to add this as an option to Cmake
directly.

Looking like .gz for everywhere would be fine and the one to standardise on.
