It's simple to do.
1. Extra stuff is checked in making revision 1001
2. The compiler is checkin making revision 1002
To make baseline build you'd need to:
1. Check out everything (you get full version 1002)
2. Check out frameworks directory revision 1000
A tag would make it a little easier in that you wouldn't have to know the
revision numbers ie you would check out the frameworks directory via a tag
name. You could also checkout frameworks directory based on date using the
{YYYY-MM_DD} syntax. You don't even need to use the command line to do this as
all these option are build into most SVN clients including subclipse in Flash
Builder (right click on frameworks, select Team then "Select to other
Tag/Branch/Revision...").
Perhaps we need to put together a little SVN tutorial on the wiki?
