That's fine by me.

I figured the ChangeLog Id just helps CVS users keep more precise track of
what Bison they're invoking when they type "bison" at the command line.
It is not strictly part of the version number. That is, `+' covers a
range of CVS versions between releases. Also note that the Id doesn't
print for a Bison release since the makefile automatically detects whether
you've added `+' to AC_INIT.

The `+' does, yes, but do people normally build a .tar.gz from CVS sources
(other than at release time)? If someone does for some reason, is the `+'
a problem?
