I don't necessarily agree. Traditionally, moving stuff between  
repositories has been problematic (can't build certain old versions of  
PHP from CVS anymore, for example, because certain extensions have  
been moved out of php-src).

IMO, we need to stop thinking about CVS and use methods that svn has  
fixed (such as svn:externals). I do, however agree with Johannes about  
tagging; tagging externals can be a pain, so we'd have to have a  
script that the RMs can use (I've written a similar script for my own  
releases).
