Downloading Subversion source automatically

I need to be able to download the subversion source tarball automatically 
as a part of packaging it into Fink.   Currently, it appears that the 
download requires a session ID and does a redirect to the actual download 
link?

Is there an alternate means by which the download could occur?  I could 
easily include a fixed session ID into the download URL for tracking 
purposes.

I'm thinking I'll need two packages;  a subversion-server and 
subversion-client.   The former would conflict with and replace the latter.

(I may actually need four packages depending on how ssl support is 
implemented)

Thanks,
b.bum
Do the voices in my head bother you?

check out my FreeBSD port

(http://electricjellyfish.net/subversion.tar.gz)

for the actually path i used, but in short you can download the file
directly from

http://www.tigris.org/files/foo/bar/subversion-M3-r88.tar.gz

(foo and bar should be some numbers, i can't remember off the top of
my head what they were, so check my port's Makefile for details.)
