Thanks - good suggestion (the reason I think it's a good suggestion is
that if I have a program called `Version' somewhere in my path (before .
if I have . in the PATH), `. Version' will execute it rather than the
local script (which is not what we want), while `. ./Version' will always
execute the local script regardless of the fact you have a third party
program called `Version' in your path).
So - I applied this change to CVS for both core/make/configure.in and
core/base/configure.in.
