Hello!
My attempt to run "make dist" in the current CVS results in creating
cvs-1.11.0..tar.gz which is not nice.
The version number is extracted from src/version.c
I'm not going to argue whether the dot after 1.11.0 is needed or not, but
the top-level Makefile should be protected against doing dummy things.
The patch is trivial for everybody who knows sed:

The last character in the version should be a number.
