    packages: subversion: Add a comment about the upstream build process.
    
    This doesn't affect the .tar.gz->.deb build, only the (svn tag)->.tar.gz build.

+    In the upstream build process, generating the tarballs from the tags is non-reproducible due to
+    (1) different_pot_creation_date_in_gettext_mo_files affecting the subversion.pot file,
+    (2) swig embedding non-$SOURCE_ROOT_DIR-relative paths into generated files.
