That must have been quite some time ago as sugar-jhbuild does detect the 
distro (using lsb-release) since before I started maintaining it. I also 
purged outdated instructions some time ago.

If your distro isn't detected (i.e. "./sugar-jhbuild depscheck" is 
giving an error) then either
a) something is broken (recently happened for Fedora because of the 
Rawhide -> F11 switchover, but has already been fixed) or
b) you don't have lsb-release installed or
c) it's currently unknown/unsupported (i.e. not one of Debian 
squeeze/sid, Fedora 10/11, Ubuntu intrepid/jaunty).
