Hrm, after further investigations only t/distro/file_metadata.t uses svn/svk directly. This test checks to make sure that the svn properties are correctly set for files in the parrot repository. Hence the need for a version control system. I'm very glad you asked this question, as I think all we really need to do here is test in t/distro/file_metadata.t if svn/svk works and then skip appropriately if not. Hence, we probably don't need the added overhead of a configure step just for the sake of one test. Paul
