I can't see any makefile dependency on gcc/version.c (I forgot it
too). It looks necessary at the top level now, and also in libf2c if
you do the above. I can't see autoconf-like move-if-change-ism at the
top level, which may be bad news.
[$(version) is the only component of libsubdir not available in libf2c
(or gcc) by standard autoconf means.]
