Hello all,

   I'm about to move to modular x.org on my NetBSD system. Before doing
so, I wanted to build the OpenChrome driver, but it fails with:

==================================================

   ...and many more errors after this. svnversion.h looks like this:

==================================================
#define BUILDCOMMENT "(development build, at svn revision 382)
"
==================================================

   I tried the trivial workaround, but svnversion.h gets rebuilt on each
run. So I simply removed the svnversion.h generation, and became a much
happier person.

   Now I seem to have a driver, but I haven't tried it yet.
