File gdoc-error missing from distribution tarball

When I try to build Shishi from the distribution tarball it fails due to
the absence of the file gdoc-error.

This file is present in the git repository, but absent from the tarball
(both the releases and the daily snapshots).

Copying the file out of git and into the tarball appears to cure the
problem.  I can't see any mechanism for generating the file at build time,
so presumably it ought to be distributed.

Thanks, it should be distributed, and I've fixed this in git master.

We probably never noticed this because it is only used if you modify the
source code, something users rarely do with released packages.
