Do not attemp to update pkgver/pkgrel when reading a SCM based PKGBUILD
from a pipe.  Fixes FS#9187.
So the patch makes sense, but I'm not quite seeing that it is this easy.
dmcgee@galway /tmp/test
$ ls
dmcgee@galway /tmp/test
$ ls ../
PKGBUILD                                         ssh-RWLFkm5100
dmcgee@galway /tmp/test
$ makepkg < ../PKGBUILD
==> ERROR: PKGBUILD does not exist.
Well, it gets us part of the way there...   "makepkg -p /dev/stdin < 
../PKGBUILD" now works which was the example given in the bug report.  
You can just remove the "Fixes FS#" comment for the time being.
