Yes, it's fixed in 1.4h, but should you really copy mdate-sh into the
appropriate subdir, rather than keep it as it was, in top directory,
and executing as $(top_srcdir)/mdate-sh? If I have several
subdirectories with texinfo files inside, I'll have several identical
copies of mdate-sh...
Also, automake gives IMHO unnecessary warning:
automake: doc/Makefile.am: `version.texi', included in
`cvsclient.texi', also included in `cvs.texinfo'
So what? How could it possibly harm anyone?
