I am CC'ing this to the mailing list so that everyone can read this when
it finally makes it around the list.

Nah, we just have a slightly different layout of the repository.  What I
would recommend is this.  First, setup svn.gna.org in your .ssh/config
so that you can checkout with just svn+ssh://svn.gna.org/... (this is
required because that's what the externals inside the repository point
to... i.e. when you check out devmodules/core, there is a property set
on that directory that tells it to checkout
svn+ssh://svn.gna.org/svn/gnustep/libs/gui/trunk into a subdirectory
called "gui". )  For example, my .ssh/config contains:

Host svn.gna.org 
        User aeruder

Which tells ssh to use the aeruder user automatically when I connect to
that host.  Then what you'll want to checkout is 

svn+ssh://svn.gna.org/svn/gnustep/devmodules/core

for just the equivalent of what used to be core or 

svn+ssh://svn.gna.org/svn/gnustep/devmodules

for something that is nearer to checking out the old CVS root.

Hope that helps... It sucks very much that the weekend we decided to do
this the gnu mailing lists seem to be crudded out.  Feel free to mail me
questions off list if you need something answered in a timely manner...
(or maybe the mailing lists are only acting up for me?)
