The 6.0dev reappeared.  The way $VERSION are changed in perl modules is
broken.  It has to change, in XSParagraph/XSParagraph.pm what is in
tp/Texinfo/Convert/XSParagraph/configure.ac should be used, not what is
in the main configure.ac.  It also raises the issue of synchronizing the
numbers in the different configure.ac of texinfo.  I would tend to favor
that, but then letters should be removed in XSParagraph/Makefile.am 
XSParagraph_la_CFLAGS form $(VERSION).

Those numbers used to be unused except when making a standalone module,
but if they can break XSUB, they should be correct.  If I am not
mistaken, they are set when when maintain/prepare_perl_module_files.sh
is called, but it is only called manually directly, or through
maintain/prepare_perl_standalone_module_archive.sh, maybe this should be
more streamlined.
