please don't break GNU tarball packaging conventions

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I looked at 5.1.3 tarbal and was sad to see that it broke with the convenient 
name-version.tar.gz scheme (and a tarball containing name-version/ toplevel 
directory) but being some funky camelcase homegrown thing with a 
non-predictable directory inside.

Please read http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/standards.html#Releases and don't 
change what you don't know, it might have been done properly already and 
distribution packagers like me won't become this grumpy.

Thanks for efforts though!

Ummmm seems a bit sad to complain about this...
