Ok, attached is a patch against makepkg in git. It uses Aaron's sed
line and is simplified a bit from my previous patch.

I'm not sure what you mean? There aren't any usage instructions, it
doesn't add any public arguments. If it finds the correct svn/etc
variables in the PKGBUILD, it'll update to the latest revision.
(Behind the scenes, I do use a -z argument to prevent the revision
number from being searched for twice due to fakeroot's makepkg
call...)

It also fixes a small typo ;-)

And finally, makepkg -p seems to be documented, but the argument
doesn't appear to be valid anymore (it's not parsed). I'm not sure if
your intention was to remove that option or it's simply an
oversight...
