Instead of trying to solve this automatically, I would suggest the following instead: - set GANGLIA_NANO_VERSION to something like "test" by default - when we want to build a "real" snapshot to be consumed by users/developers, you replace "test" with the real SVN version manually in configure.in This has the added option of allowing the person doing the snapshot release to add additional tags to the SVN version (eg. GANGLIA_NANO_VERSION = 1090-perlmodules) -- the reason why this may be useful is I may be testing some changes I have made in my local repository (and not checked in), yet with the current scheme, the SVN version will be the same.
