Same results with

AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(freetds, 0.62.dev.`date +%Y%m%d`)

However next day you have to rerun autogen to rebuild configure with
current date.
Using recent tools (needed!) dependency are generated, so to generate
snapshot (or rpm) you can use a script like

touch configure.in
make dist

Yes, this solution sound good to me.

rpm -Fvh freetds-0.62.dev.20030221-1.i386.rpm !!!

I saw you have resolved problem with web access... what about two
snapshot (current development branch and current stable branch) ?
