One more from Solaris:

The NAME_VER doesn't work on SUN either:
It is expanded to:
NAME_VER            = -n 5

On linux no problem. 

I propose to keep the old method to get VERSION and NAME_VER in Makefile.in
for the beta9 release (simple revert in Makefile.in and removeal of sed
expansion on configure[.in]). We have some more time for the stable version
to get the new approach working.
