Ok, bad wording. We need a new product *version*. So just changing
1.7.1 in the top configure.in. The current development
1.7.1-200302191139 tar.bz snaposhots or 1.7.1 development BK pulls are
1) confusing
2) ends up reporting issues in stable version 1.7.1 however that's not
the case due to lack of proper versioning.
