Instead of downloading a tarball (and then downloading another one 
later, etc), consider an anonymous cvs checkout.  That way, when you 
want to update, you only download what has changed.

I have several CVS checkouts on my computer, the latest dev version, the 
version 2.2 branch, etc. In the top of each checkout directory, I have 
two one-line scripts:

'update' contains:

cvs cvs up -dP && cd src && ./configure --enable-run-in-place


'build' contains:

(cd src && make -s )


Whenever I want to be up-to-date, I just do:

./update && ./build

It takes between 1 and 5 minutes (depending on how many changes have 
been made since the last time I updated) before I have a compiled and 
ready to run EMC2.
