Speaking as upstream co-author of OpenBSC. We are using something like this to
get the revision from the last tag of the repository. If someone is doing a
make dist(check) we will copy a special version file into the tar.gz and use
that instead.
From an upstream point of view I think it is acceptable to say that the ones
that build stuff from a SCM (in contrast to a tarball) should have the files
of the SCM around...
PS: I liked the --exclude patch a lot too...
