It would be a backup in case Emacs trunk breaks, so you aren't "shafted"
until it gets fixed. I'm assuming you use Emacs for mail and stuff on a
daily basis.

Just do the obvious thing and have some kind of backup, whether it be a
different version, `make install', a tar file, rsync, cp -r, a second
bzr branch, whatever works for you. Having only a checkout of Emacs
trunk and nothing else is asking for trouble.
