Summary: Win32: Fix build when you have TortoiseSVN but no .svn/*
Initial Comment:
Recent snazzy improvements to the Win32 build system include embedding SVN version information in the builds. This is done by compiling a short C file, make_buildinfo.c, and running the result. make_buildinfo.exe runs the liltingly-named SubWCRev.exe--a tool that comes with TortoiseSVN--over one of the source files, ../Modules/getbuildinfo.c, producing a second file, getbuildinfo2.c.
The code is reasonably smart; if you don't have TortoiseSVN, it doesn't bother trying, and just compiles ../Modules/getbuildinfo.c unmodified. However: it blindly assumes that if SubWCRev.exe exists, and the system() call to run it returns 0 or greater, getbuildinfo2.c must have been successfully created. If you have TortoiseSVN, but *don't* have the .svn/... directories in your source tree, system(SubWCRev.exe) returns 0 or greater (seemingly indicating success) but in fact fails and does *not* create getbuildinfo2.c. When it fails in this way I see this inscrutable message in the log:
"C:\b\tortoisesvn\bin\subwcrev.exe" .. ..\Modules\getbuildinfo.c getbuildinfo2.c
SubWCRev : Path '..' ends in '..', which is unsupported for this operation
This patch changes make_buildinfo.c so that it calls _stat(getbuildinfo2.c) as a final step. If getbuildinfo2.c exists, it returns true, else it returns false.
