Fix variables getting overriden by /etc/os-release

[Per Øyvind Karlsen]

The follow patch fixes /etc/os-release being sourced right into same
environment as the configure script runs in, meaning that any existing
variables with same names as found in /etc/os-release gets overriden.

This patch sources /etc/os-release and prints the $ID variable in a
sub-shell in order to avoid this problem.

*shrug* applied

The entire idea that one can specify a vendor reliably
in a file for access portably by AutoCrap is naive.
