Well it happend again when I added new file which happen to conflict
with broken build file.  I think I can work around this ... but...

I think root cause fix this problem is to run "svn checkout" with
"--force" option.  Since no one is commiting from www-master checkout,
it should not be problem as I understand.

This should make build process more robust.

Once I get pages build pages, I will request such thing.  For now, my
plan is provide XML files as source and do pre-processing locally here.
