configure: do not require hg when configuring in an hg clone

When configuring in an hg clone, we need hg to compute the version string.
It can happen that users do not have Mercurial (eg. if they got a snapshot
rather that they did a full clone). In this case, we can still run, of
course, so simply fill the version string with a sufficiently explicit
value, that does not require hg. The date is a good candidate.

     4 	With latest versions of glibc, a lot of apps failed on a PaX enabled
     5 	system with:
     6 		 cannot enable executable stack as shared object requires: Permission denied
     7 	
     8 	This is due to PaX 'exec-protecting' the stack, and ld.so then trying
     9 	to make the stack executable due to some libraries not containing the
    10 	PT_GNU_STACK section.  Bug #32960.  <azarah@gentoo.org> (12 Nov 2003).
    11 
    12 	Patch also NPTL. Bug #116086. <kevquinn@gentoo.org> (20 Dec 2005).
