[PATCH] ExtUtils::MM_Unix: dist target

Hello Schwern,

the documentation for dist_target says that an up-to-date check for
the Makefile is done, which is *not* the case if the VERSION is
retrieved from the setting in Makefile.PL and not from VERSION_FROM.
The patch below makes the dist creation always dependent on a current
Makefile. I introduced also a dist_update_check to make the other
warning appear *before* actually creating the distribution, not
*after*. I also think that this warning should be turned into a die,
but this is not part of this patch.

Regards,
	Slaven
