OK I finally understood what happened. Before 2.7.0, I was running 'cmake .' in flightgear root directory and it created all the object files amongst the source files. Since it is not the way to proceed with cmake, I decided to create a 'build' directory under flightgear and call 'cmake ..' in there instead. Unfortunately it seems I did not completely clean up the source directories since a copy of 'version.h' was still being in flightgear/src/Include. When the version moved to 2.8.0, 'cmake ..' created a correct version under flightgear/build/src/Include but the old version under flightgear/src/Include was no longer updated but was still used. Hence the issue. I looked for all the files named '*.in' and deleted the files that were created from them. Hopefully this should complete the clean up. Thanks Thorsten and sorry for the noise.
