Summary: Make it possible to use SVK to develop Python

Initial Comment:
I want to use SVK instead of SVN when developing Python on my laptop. Currently, the parsing of HEADURL in Python/sysmodule.c:svnversion_init() kills the interpreter at start-up because the HEADURL for SVK looks like /py3k/local/Python/sysmodule.c.

The attached patch causes svnversion_init() to use "unknown" for the branch name instead of raising a fatal error when it encounters a mis-formatted HEADURL.

This is fine.  Note the indentation is screwed up.  It looks like some
mixing of tabs and spaces.  It would be good to add a comment near the
copying of "unknown" to mention about supporting svk and possibly other SCM
systems.
