Heh, probably prepare could be converted into a smart script that
downloads orig.tar.gz files if they are missing and call that in the
pre-build-action. I haven't tested it yet, but this seems the right
thing.
Just discovered svn-buildpackage.actions.config:
# something to do after/before tagging. The shell executing it gets the
# environment variables: TAG_VERSION and PACKAGE
post-tag-action = ~/bin/sync_to_cvs
#pre-tag-action =
pre-build-action = ~/do/some/nasty/things
post-build-action = ~/do/other/things
