Hi!

When building pdf documentation for libc and libm out of the most
recent package (2.5.0), the version on front page in both document says
2.2.0 with "December 2014" date.

Is there any way to make this value automatic, so it wouldn't have to
be updated with each release?

Automake does indeed offer such a mechanism (see "info automake doctexinfo" about 'version.texi'); even the truly ancient version newlibneeds for --cygnus mode does.


Newlib just doesn't use it.
