I finally succeeded in importing gambas2 sources inside the sourceforge 
subversion repository, by splitting the process in smaller parts.

The only difference with 1.9.43 is the help directory: I compressed the ~3000 
help files in a help.tar.bz2 file, to speed up the import. Now I just have to 
change the help/Makefile.am file so that this archive is uncompressed at 
installation time.

You can checkout now!
