Back when I did this (back with Ragel 5.20) I followed this sequence:

1. build/install from tarball (doesn't need Ragel)

2. build/install kelbt (http://www.cs.queensu.ca/~thurston/kelbt/),  
also a prerequisite

3. Subversion checkout and build

I expect that the pattern is probably similar with the current trunk.
