I've saw the problem about the time we added version.h and version.sh.

I suspect that the current Makefile is newer than Makefile.am, so it isn't 
getting regenerated.  When "make" starts, it doesn't know Makefile is 
out-of-date, so it doesn't know about version.h, version.sh, or any of 
that.  When gcc runs and compiles main.c (or bogoutil.c), the compilation 
fails because version.h is needed.

Certainly, I have seen the problem of no version.sh.  I think I solved it 
via "cvs-bootstrap.sh", "./configure", "make".  Unfortunately, I don't 
recall exactly what I did.
