Summary:                    [patch] Cannot flavour (flavor) version number
because make_version_c looks in wrong directory
Description: 
build_system/make_version_[ch] look for .flavor in .., but are actually
run, by the Makefile, with the top level directory as the current
directory.

Also, if there is no .version file, but there is a .flavor, when one fixes
the bad directory reference, one gets a trailing space in the parenthesized
suffix, although, if there is a .version, it is not clear why one actually
needs to include it in the extra information, as it is used in the main
ASTERISKVERSION string.

I'm now able to upload our patch that addresses the .flavor part of this
issue.  It doesn't address the inelegant handling of missing .version files
when .flavor is present.
