[[moving to the correct list]]
Hi All,
It turns out that this patch isn't quite complete, because we were also
using mkstamp to count the number of datelines in our ChangeLogs to get
a serial number for ltversion.m4.
The appended patch counts the number of git commits in order to get a
serial number and also creates $(distdir)/.serial during make dist so that
the correct serial number is also available when building from a distribution
tarball.
Although I've kept it separate in this thread for easier review, I'll squash
it into the [PATCH 2/3] commit in 72 hours, pending any comments that need
addressing first.

Makefile.am (dotserial): Distributed file to cache the serial
number for when git is not available to recalculate it when
building from a release tarball.
(dist-hook): Make sure .serial is created.
(libltdl/config/ltversion.m4): Use .serial when it is present
(in a dist tarball) or calculate with git otherwise (in a git
working directory).
(EXTRA_DIST): Add .serial file.
