distcheck failure: version.texi

[Ralf Wildenhues]

Hi there,

With current CVS automake, 'make distcheck' fails on automake,
because readonly file version.texi in readonly directory
cannot be written to.

I suppose the change from 2003-11-08 caused this, but as I don't
understand all the implications, I won't suggest a fix.

Regards,
Ralf
