lloconv uses it to pick whether to try to initialise "liblibreoffice" or
"LibreOfficeKit".  Or at least it did - I've just reworked it to pick
based on which hook function is present - that's a cleaner approach,
though it does mean that the "shim" code is now greatly diverged from
upstream.  But that's only necessary until LO versions with
LibreOfficeKit are ubiquitous.

While the incorrectness of ProductMajor is no longer something I really
care about, there is still something peculiar happening here which it
would be good to try to get to the bottom of, i.e. that the binary
package contains a different versionrc to the one which your buildlog
shows should have gone into it.
