Comment (by MattyRob):

 @bpetty,

 Thanks for the follow up, I'm actually on OSX and have never messed with
 the subversion config so I have no idea why that happened or how to change
 it - I'm updating via MacPorts now to see if that helps.

 As for the missing files - I actually never intended to include the full
 package and asked for some guidance from a core dev in point 3 made in the
 original trac ticket about what needed including and what can be missed.

 I'm not sure WordPress uses the language files currently so could they be
 skipped? The docs, examples and tests are also unnecessary IMO as anyone
 wanting those should be using PHPMailer directly - I don't see the need in
 having them within WordPress - but I don't know what the core guidelines
 are for third party libraries. Include what is needed or the entire
 library irrespective of size or make a case by case decision for the best
 result for WordPress.
