To be safe I started again getting the source.
At the end it say

Checked out revision 41.  <============

*** note: has something to do with SuSE distro (i could ignore it always)

# ./configure --prefix=/opt/gbsvn
same result about 'missing to old'

...
link: too few arguments
Try `link --help' for more information.
configure: WARNING: `missing' script is too old or missing
...

*** note: the file 'missing' is not missing :)

With diff:
the aclocal.m4 differs in version: tar=1.9.4 svn=1.9.5
makefile.in: tar=1.9.4 svn=1.9.5

*** note: unknown it is now because of the reconf 


from config.log on tarbal:

*** note: some problen in the 'main' directory?

*** note: Bingo?

look in trunk/main/config.sub
!! file exist, content 'link ../config.sub'
found same in trunk/gb.xml
*** note: in the tarbal it is a symlink

I suppose the config.sub is stored as file describing a link instead real symlink.

Replace it by real symlink
retry ./configure -C --prefix=/opt/gbsvn
It goes much far now

configure: error: cannot run /bin/sh ./config.sub
configure: error: /bin/sh './configure' failed for gb.compress.bzlib2

Same replace done and OK

Sorry for the long report but it is to know my way of check is correct.
