I can only join you in your puzzlement. The following are excepts from
configure.in and shell/Makefile.am:

configure.in:
	AC_INIT(evolution, 2.11.92, http://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Evolution)


shell/Makefile.am:
	noinst_PROGRAMS = evolution

	install-exec-local: install-evolution
	        $(mkinstalldirs) $(DESTDIR)$(libexecdir)
	        mv $(DESTDIR)$(bindir)/evolution-$(BASE_VERSION) $(DESTDIR)$(libexecdir)/evolution-$(BASE_VERSION)
	        $(INSTALL_PROGRAM) evolution-nognome $(DESTDIR)$(bindir)/evolution-$(BASE_VERSION)


These tree excerpts alone makes me believe that
"svn.gnome.org/svn/evolution/trunk" isn't the primary repository that
the Novell developers checks their source into...
