That is wrong. It's trying to download the tar ball from meta-comm. I
changed the script a few weeks ago to get the tar balls directly from
the SVN server (before I went on vacation 8/27). And posted a message
telling testers to update the regression.py script (since the automatic
update of the script was never fixed by meta-comm -- and I have no clue
how to fix that part yet).

When I do it manually I get:

===
-bash-3.00$ python regression.py get-source
# Getting sources (2007-09-15T16:23:15Z)...
# Downloading "http://beta.boost.org/development/snapshot.php/trunk" to
"/home/grafik/devroots/testing"...
# Looking for old unpacked archives...
# Unpacking boost tarball
("/home/grafik/devroots/testing/boost-trunk.tar.bz2")...
# Unpacked into directory
"/home/grafik/devroots/testing/boost-trunk-2007-09-15-12-23-15-EDT"
# Deleting "/home/grafik/devroots/testing/boost" directory...
# Renaming
"/home/grafik/devroots/testing/boost-trunk-2007-09-15-12-23-15-EDT" into
"/home/grafik/devroots/testing/boost"
===

So I guess I need to post a more forceful message. And we need to fix
the auto-update :-( Hm... Or maybe I can make obsolete the auto-update.
