Re: Useless patch?

The 0.99.0 was arbitrary. You can change that to suit. I meant to back that
out before sending. 

The autogen param is actually to configure. It changes the names of the
executables to be orbit1-idl, ior1-decode, orbit1-config, etc. to keep from
conflicting with the "release" versions. 

There was a request a few days ago to fix versioning to get the "release"
versions and CVS head to co-exist. The libraries should end up with names
like libORBit-0.99.so.0.0.0, etc.

Just some ramblings. Not much real work. :)
