I checkout the SVN tag and explode the archive(s) in the same parent
directory, and then use a Gui difference tool (WinDiff) to show the
differences.
Have to ignore SVN directories and (perhaps) EOL differences.

The biggest problems come from different directory layouts in SVN and
the archive.
Also the SVN $Date variable is locale-dependent so causes spurious
differences; don't use it!
