I think this is asked too much, unless you want to also contribute
code for that (which I really consider unnecessary). Users who build
from the source repository just need to get their build environment
right.

It's unfortunate that subversion doesn't provide relative ordering of
files after an update, perhaps Mercurial is better with that. For a
release, the time stamps in the tar file will do fine.
