Sure, it's a bunch of makefiles, you could run any program or command.

For example, I have a custom "config" package in my tree that updates
some init scripts, snippet can be seen below.

Other than that rule for unpacking the sources, all the rest of the
makefile is quite standard.
I do realize there is an SVN variable somewhere, but I was too lazy to
look it up, it was easier for me to call svn directly. The variable
will just expand to "svn co" anyway.
