I don't think it is a good idea to require a user to have SubVersion on their system to build the Euphoria binaries.
I hope you can fix the code so svnversion.exe is not needed.
I agree. Can we check the result of the system call to svnversion.exe and if it failed, simply write a rev.ex that says SVN_VERSION = "Unknown" ?

We already do this. Actually, if we can't find svnversion, we try to figure out what the version is without it, and then only write unknown if we can't figure it out.
In fact, we originally didn't bother calling svnversion. That was added later, and it is not required.
However, since it is causing problems, maybe we should avoid calling svnversion altogether?
