Generally speaking, I tend to agree that a makefile is slightly
overkill for this task. The contents of the makefile is fairly
straightforward though, and outside of variable VEC in the makefile,
you script doesn't look any simpler than the makefile... What
I appreciate, however, is the lack of make recursions (with
the associated multiple "make" processes).

Give it another week for people to comment on, and then let's get
this in (I'll take care of talking to Tristan when he comes back).
Also, let's delete the old src-release script.

Some relatively trivial comments below:

Can you use /usr/bin/env? People trying to create tarballs for their
own might not be doing it on a GNU/Linux machine, and so bash might
be installed elsewhere.

The copyright year range looks correct to me, but the license
should be GPLv3.
