Description:
root@w2k:(none)~> show variables like "version%";
+-------------------------+---------------------+
| Variable_name           | Value               |
+-------------------------+---------------------+
| version                 | 4.1.7-nt            |
| version_comment         | Source distribution |
| version_compile_machine | i32                 |
| version_compile_os      | NT                  |
+-------------------------+---------------------+

Note that this is an official build of 4.1.7 yet the version_coment says it's a source distro.
You can also see this in the .err file:
Version: '4.1.7-nt'  socket: ''  port: 3306  Source distribution

How to repeat:
see description

Suggested fix:
The build process changed recently as I never noticed this before.  We need to find out what has 
changed.

I've quick checked most (all?) of our Windows build scripts for "Source distribution", and have 
come up empty. I checked:

 - Do-win-build
 - mysql.ds{p,w}, sql/mysqld.ds{p,w} (4.1.7)
 - 4.1/scripts/make_win_src_distribution.sh
 - 4.1/Build-tools/mysql-copyright{-2}
 - 4.1/Build-tools/Bootstrap (lots of "source distribution", but nothing relevant)

I'm stumped. Maybe Lenz knows.

Got the same result for 4.0.22, 4.1.8 and 5.0.2

Fixed by updating the script that now performs the Windows builds
