Copying the source VCS ID from WITH_/WITHOUT_* into the generated src.conf.5 is not necessary, as it is generally possible to determine the same information using the VCS to examine commit metadata. The individual source files also match the name of the option recorded in the generated file, so it is clear from where the content originated.
The copied IDs generate extraneous, non-content noise in the generated src.conf.5 in some cases, including the first time the file is generated on a stable branch. In addition, the source file $FreeBSD$ tags are not expanded by git or other non-Subversion VCSs, which means that makeman previously could not be used in a non-Subversion working tree.
I accept that there's some desire to keep these, but on balance believe there is more benefit in removing them.
