Mhh, this is of course useless since we run "configure" in order to
obtain "Platform.make".

I have now added a potential solution:
In r63878 (trunk) and r63879 (relbranch70) I have now hardcoded
"00000" rather than getting an empty string when "svnversion" is not
available.

If possible, could you try to update from relbranch70 to see if that
solves the issue?

It should now deliver in such cases

g.version -g
version=7.01.svn
date=2014
revision=00000
build_date=2014-12-30
build_platform=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu

thanks
