cmd/*/configure.in shell scripting bug

I suggest replacing

  dnl Set version
  . VERSION

with

  dnl Set version
  . ./VERSION
    ^^

in the configure.in scripts. Otherwise the (debian) package build
fails, unless one has '.' in one's PATH (I don't, nor will I ever):

  coredump:/u/palkovic/linux-2.4-xfs/cmd/attr> fakeroot ./debian/rules
  == dpkg-buildpackage: build
  test -f debian/rules
  autoconf
  DEBUG="-DNDEBUG"; OPTIMIZER="-O1 -g"; DISTRIBUTION="debian"; export DEBUG OPTIMIZER DISTRIBUTION; ./configure
  creating cache ./config.cache
  .: VERSION: not found
  make: *** [built] Error 2
