Presumably that's "not present or not executable":
$ man test
...
-x file True if file exists and is executable. True indicates only
that the execute flag is on. If file is a directory, true
indicates that file can be searched.
...
I suspect their problem was that they didn't have Subversion installed on the build machine, so there was no svnversion command available:

The User's Guide says "36497 for Wireshark 1.5"; should we do as we do for the programs, and not bother giving the SVN version number if you're not building from SVN?
