Hmm... indeed, it looks like the proper place. I did not realize
that there was a method to show the detailed release information.

Still, the convention I see in many programs is to show the version
and distro information as part of the help message, and/or as a
separate "-V|--version" method. So I'd argue this output should be
added to both locations in the code :)

Also note that the hacked autoconf part can also influence the RPM
spec-file, and maybe some other locations (depending on how they can
receive the overridden variables - so far I tested the plain variables
in the shell-script context of the generated configure script, and
the config.h undef's and re-define's. If there are other avenues of
the value propagation - they might be or not be handled by this fix.
