If you google for "git root" you get that answer and it seems to work
for me in a number of environments.  The GIT folks apparently
have a little work to do....I like my alias.

Anyway, I solved my issue with a "cd" first:

>    local git_ver=$(\cd $sdir ; ./build-aux/git-version-gen /dev/null | \
>        sed -e 's/-dirty/-modified/')

yielding:

> char const _libposix_git_version[] = "0.0.4260-ef0cb-modified";

and the reconf works, modulo a warning:

which needs some fix some place.  The final build fails tho:

Looks like more sed work is needed, despite:
