That sounds good.  There's a minor bug in your version:  ./configure
--help uses the version from .version instead of version.sh as
do_help() is called before version.sh is updated.

Then again, it had a similar problem before the patch: ./configure
--help would report crosstool-NG-hg instead of the full
crosstool-NG-hg-revno-foo.

Let me know if it's important and I can make a patch,
