manpages contain unreplaced @date@ and @version@

[janstary]

Currently, all four manpages contain @Date@ and or @Version@,
see the output of grep -E '@(date|version)' *.8{,.in}.

This shouldn't be there in the first place: a date is a part of the manpage itself,
to be changed whenever someone changes the manpage; and nobody needs
two versions of the same manpage installed.

Makefile creates *.8 from *.8.in by sed'ing the @variables@;
but rather than adding @Date@ and @Version@ to the list,
let's please remove these from the manpages.

(Testing: it's @Date not @Date so why does github change that?)

[janstary]

@date not @Date ; ah.

Thanks @janstary! Please allow us to pick this one up once we've switched to Sphinx for generating man pages.

I've added them to $(EDIT) in Makefile.in. makedist.sh the script we use to create releases actually does replace them. Anyway, the Makefile does so now too, closing this issue.
