Using GRASS 6.4.0 on windows vista I type "g.extension
extension=r.stream.order" in the command line at the bottom of
the layer manager window. The following error is returned:

"Error: svn client required. Please install Subversion first."

I have looked through many posts and help files to no avail, if
anyone can tell me what additional steps/programs/plugins are
required to install addons I would really appreciate the help.

see http://subversion.apache.org

note g.extension is rather new and untested compared the rest of
the software, especially on Windows. Besides svn for building C
modules, you will need a C compiler which doesn't ship with the
GRASS installer.

What about a automtaci build process on the server?
Then the users would download a "package" and drop in a extension
directory or use g.extension for that task.
I mean something similar to Launchpad PPA or PyPi.

For Windows:
We need to convince Martin Landa to run a compilation of all
Addons on his winGRASS build server. I have added Makefiles
to most directories, whatever is missing would just be not there then.

Then copy the resulting *.exe into a separate Addons download directory
on josef...
