In addition to.  Here are the steps I take:

1.  I keep my svn version in the sourceforge directory, just as the cvs
version was

svn checkout http://emacspeak.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ emacspeak

This will create a directory called emacspeak, if it does not exist
already, and will check out the latest svn version.

2.  cd emacspeak

3.  make clean

4.  make README

5.  make emacspeak

Actually, I do all of these on one line in the shell, linking them
together with logical and (&& - the double ampersand character) so that
if one fails it does not execute the next command.

After these steps I run a shell script I wrote to automate the make
install process and all the steps associated with it.  If you like I can
send it to you.

I assume that you are using the release version, as you said you have
not done a svn checkout.  The make README is probably not necessary in
the release version.
