+### SYNOPSIS
+###
+###   mdw_AUTO_VERSION
+###
+### DESCRIPTION
+###
+###   Defines an m4 macro `AUTO_VERSION' which contains the current package's
+###   version number, worked out in some clever way.
+###
+###   The heavy lifting is performed by the `auto-version' script (q.v.).  In
+###   brief:
+###
+###    * if this is a Git working tree (i.e., there is a `.git' file or
+###      directory at toplevel) then call `git describe' and use its output;
+###
+###     * if there is a `RELEASE' file, then use its contents literally;
+###
+###     * if there is a `debian/changelog' file, then use the most recent
+###      entry's version number;
+###
+###     * otherwise use `UNKNOWN'.
