What about this one?

It touches one line in the top level Makefile, but that can be
considered not perf specific, i.e. if building source tarballs
(-src-pkg suffixed targets) is considered useful, and I think it is,
then that can be used for building source tarballs with some processing,
i.e. adding the HEAD to the tarball being generated, like I'm doing
for perf.
