avoid-beta-warning

avoid self-describing as a beta

Using autoreconf against the source as distributed in tarball form
invariably results in a package that thinks it's a "beta" package,
which produces the "THIS IS A DEVELOPMENT VERSION" warning string.

since we use dh_autoreconf, i need this patch to avoid producing
builds that announce themselves as DEVELOPMENT VERSIONs.
