I have tried to migrate the sundials and glpk-shlib parts of the pkg-octave
repository to the pkg-scicomp one by using "svnadmin dump", "svnadmin load", 
and "svndumpfilter".  Unfortunately, this method does not work because
svndumfilter is unable to treat repositories in which "svn mv" and "svn cp"
have been used.  See:

    http://archives.devshed.com/forums/development-94/svndumpfilter-invalid-copy-source-path-1286334.html

I could try to restore the history and the tags by hand but this would
represent a huge amount of work and I cannot afford it.  Unless someone
tell me another way to migrate parts of an SVN repository to another one,
I will to just import the last versions of the sundials and glpk-shlib
packages into the pkg-scicomp repository.  In this case, I will indicate
in the initial commit log where the past history can be found.  What do
you think?
