Right, and I am suggesting that we remove the deprecation warning for  
svn.tag from trunk again, and not re-add it until the next version of  
MacPorts has been released which includes svn.revision. Because  
svn.tag *is not* deprecated today. svn.tag is in fact the only way to  
accomplish that today. Nobody, not even those running trunk, should  
be led to believe that they should replace instances of svn.tag with  
svn.revision today, because they should not; doing so would break  
things for those not running trunk.
