This lets us know if the repo is clean or dirty and if changes have been

For this specific use, I would not call it modified, because it is
useful to differentiate between a tree that has actually been modified
by a user, and a build that is "vanilla" with only modifications
introduced by auto-gen files. Any untracked files present should only
affect the build if the user also modifies tracked files (short of a
user hacking Makefile.in and configure files, too).
This is what I also think. The RSB is unique because you can add a new
file or a few files and use those but they would tend to result in
different version numbers showing up in other parts.
I will push a patch.
Thanks
Chris
