thank you very much. fence_ifmib is now in git master branch.

I did a few changes to plug it in. I will need to review the fence 
building script to avoid that hack for the COPYRIGHT header generation but 
it's low priority in my list for now. I made sure to keep the original one 
in the header.

Could you please consider adding a few print to the help menu to add 
information about build date, release version and your copyright to be 
consistent with the other fence agents?

Thanks
Fabio
