Hi Gerald,

Does the patch to make-version.pl sometimes prevent the generation of the
cvsversion.h file when building an official release? If so, you need to
amend the make-version.pl script so the cvsversion.h file exists but it
shouldn't contain a definition for the CVS version string.

Regards,

Olivier

|That's fine.  I was planning on doing the release in about 9 or 10
