Wrong external reference in kdebase blocking kdesvn-build

OK, looking a bit harder I found a workaround on
http://techbase.kde.org/Getting_Started/Sources/Anonymous_SVN by
modifying the svn:externals property locally. I just had to use
https://username@svn.kde.org/... instead of svn:// because I have not
only a firewall but also a proxy to go through, but it should be OK as
long as I don't start committing stuff in kdebase :-)

Thanks for this exciting release, I can't wait to see my colleagues'
jaws drop when I first launch KDE 4.0 :-)
BTW, after it works on Linux (close now), I'll try it on Solaris, albeit
with a Gnu toolchain. I'll let Adrian and Stefan work on the more
difficult problem of compiling it with a Sun toolchain :-) Good luck,
guys !
