This is the actual message I get.
checking for ./src/swig-runtime.h... no
configure: error:
It looks like you are NOT building from Subversion
but I cannot find swig-runtime.h. Check your PATH
and make sure we can find svnversion in your PATH!
Either that or contact gnucash-devel@gnucash.org because
the tarball you downloaded is broken.

Now the funny things are:
(1) I am building from subversion, except that to avoid messing with my
pristine copy, and to avoid accidentally uploading junk in case I should
ever get upload privileges, I'm using a copy of the downloaded-by-svn
source code that does not have the .svn directories in it.
Do build details really depend on the presence of .svn directories?
(2) I can find svnversion in my $PATH.
hendrik@notlookedfor:~/dv/gnucash/workspace/gnucash$ echo $PATH
/home/hendrik/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/games:/home/hendrik/
bin/i686/:/usr/local/cm3/bin/:/usr/local/Gambit-C/current/bin/
hendrik@notlookedfor:~/dv/gnucash/workspace/gnucash$ which svnversion
/usr/bin/svnversion
hendrik@notlookedfor:~/dv/gnucash/workspace/gnucash$
(3) But indeed, I can't find swig-runtime.h anywhere either. Where is it
supposed to come from?
