But there is a v2_0_3 tag; jhbuild now has support for SVN branches
but not direct support for tags.

However it is possible to pervert the module attribute to achieve the
desired effect:

   <autotools id="ekiga" ...>
-    <branch revision="v2_0_3"/>
+    <branch module="ekiga/tags/v2_0_3" checkoutdir="ekiga"/>
     <dependencies>

I just commited this.  If there are more modules checking out from a
tag instead of a branch (or trunk), I'll add proper tag support to
jhbuild subversion.
