 Right now, if you're running WordPress via svn, there's no quick way to
 know what version of SVN you're on, without checking 'svn version' - That
 adds an extra layer on to people who are beta testing.

 Yes, you could use the beta tester plugins, but that doesn't work on all
 servers and lets face it, some of us really just like to be in control
 (Nacin, you can make the tinfoil hat jokes).

 Adding into rightnow_end mostly works (see https://gist.github.com/1206932
 for Pete Mall's awesome catch), but it doesn't show it 'inline' with the
 rest.  Even the show SVN version only puts it in the footer:
 http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/show-svn-revision/

 That's not 'visual' enough in the right way.  It should be inline right
 there with 'You are using WordPress version ...'

 So I made a patch for it, leveraging Pete's work and then tweaking the
 updates.
