Ok, that's what we needed to know.  Lalo, is it true that bzr *requires* 
Python 2.4?  Also bzr uses a non-standard Python module for access over 
ssh, which could be troublesome (this is only required for write access, 
though, read access works fine over http).

I do intend to set up a job to mirror changes to a read-only CVS, as well 
as have it generate nightly snapshots, so it won't be necessary to use bzr 
unless you are committing changes directly into the main interreality.org 
branch.

Right now I am working on having the configure script be able to 
automatically download and build boost, wxwidgets and crystalspace.  This 
is actually coming a long very well, with boost and wxwidgets already 
done.  This will make building VOS quite a bit easier, as it will be able 
to set up all the dependencies for you.
