If you remove the automatic generation of the version info from
svnversion, you defeat the whole purpose of having it in the first
place. If I have to remember to add '--with-version', the one time that
it matters I'll forget and then when Hal asks me what version I have
I'll tell him the wrong one.

OpenMPI generates a version string from svnversion in the configure
script.. This would be a good way to do it if it's not in the makefile
directly.
