Comment:
That the gitrev build with autotools goes through is by luck. It's supposed to generate the fc_gitrev_gen.h to the build dir: '$(top_builddir)/common/fc_gitrev_gen.h' -> '../common/fc_gitrev_gen.h'. With that output file name it actually gets generated to the source directory, and gets used from there.

Ticket details:
generate_gitrev.sh writes output file relative to input (source) directory, not to the directory it was executed from.
This breaks meson builds 'gitrev' option. (gone unnoticed this far because there often is fc_gitrev_gen.h generated by earlier autotools build)
