Hi David.  Good points.  But I agree with you that a better solution
is not to copy the .svn files in the first place.  We don't want a
bunch of .svn crap in the install directory.  Would you make a patch
which just copies the files we need instead of doing -f?  If you check
it into the soc07 tree and let us know on nmap-dev, I can merge it
into /nmap.  So that will be a good test for us of that process as
well.

Cheers,
-F
