Summary: M5: distribution tarballs contain non-sense data

Initial Comment:
As detected on the monetdb-X ML, M5 spits out completely bogus data on 
--version due to some brain [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The to be attached patch supplies a workaround for the coming release by 
removing the bogus information.  The issue should be solved, ideally by just 
using a plain C file instead of MX.

The problem is a combination of Mx and configure.  The file that produces
the bogus information is mserver.mx.in.  This file, in order to be included
in the source tar ball, is processed by configure to produce mserver5.mx,
which is then processed by Mx to produce mserver5.c.  The latter processing
is necessary for a source tar ball, but the former isn't.  It's only
necessary so that the latter can be done.  If we could somehow reverse the
two processes and postpone the processing by configure until the configure
run by the end user, all would be well.

In the mean time, is this bug serious enough to jeopardize the release? 
(I.e., is it a show stopper?)
