If no one else comments, I'll push the following shortly, extracting
the ChangeLog directly from this commit log. It'd be good to add your
example to the documentation, but that needn't hold up the change.

Subject: [PATCH] version-etc: extend for packagers
Add three new configure options, intended for packagers:
--with-packager="packager name"
--with-packager-version="packager-specific version"
--with-packager-bug-reports="packager bug reporting"
An example with coreutils:
$ ./configure \
--with-packager=Gentoo \
--with-packager-bug-report=http://bugs.gentoo.org/ \
--with-packager-version="patchset 1.6"
$ ./src/ls --version | head -n3
ls (GNU coreutils) 7.1-dirty
Packaged by Gentoo (patchset 1.6)
Copyright (C) 2009 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
Note that the bug reporting info via --help doesn't show up because
coreutils uses its own custom emit_bug_reporting_address() implementation
in src/system.h. If it didn't, it'd look like:
$ ./src/ls --help | tail -n4
Report bugs to <bug-coreut...@gnu.org>.
Report Gentoo bugs to <http://bugs.gentoo.org/>.
GNU coreutils home page: <http://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/>.
General help using GNU software: <http://www.gnu.org/gethelp/>.
* lib/version-etc.c: Print new information, if provided.
* m4/version-etc.m4: New file.
* modules/version-etc (Files): Add m4/version-etc.m4.
(configure.ac): Add gl_VERSION_ETC.
