Thanks for taking the time to try it out, sorry it wasn't more successful :/

It looks like you are using the userspace from sources under the "head/" 
directory.  In order to get the new features you need to use the sources 
under the "branches/static_label" directory.

 * http://netlabel.svn.sf.net/viewvc/netlabel/netlabel_tools/branches

I apologize, I probably wasn't as clear about this as I should have been in my 
original posting.

Here are the commands, in order, that I used to fetch and build the 
static_label branch of the netlabel_tools package:

 # svn co https://netlabel.svn.sf.net/svnroot/netlabel netlabel
 # cd netlabel/netlabel_tools/branches/static_label
 # make

If you run into any more problems, or have any questions let me know.

Thanks again for your help.
