[Distutils] [issue29] SVN detection for package indices breaks on Sourceforge.net

[Nathan R. Yergler]

New submission from Nathan R. Yergler <nathan at yergler.net>:

PackageIndex._download_html (setuptools/package_index.py) attempts to detect if
an HTML page is a Subversion repository using the regular expression
r'<title>Revision \d+:'.  This breaks for Sourceforge subversion repositories,
which include the project name before the "Revision" text (see
http://cctools.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/cctools/vendorlibs/utidylib/ for an
arbitrary example).
