Do you see this, or do you get a single-line version number?
I get the same. The reason is simple :
$ hg tip
changeset: 9:f11244ed72b5
tag: tip
user: Nadia Derbey <nadia.der...@bull.net>

summary: up to changeset c4b117c5439b
$ hg -v tip | grep changeset | cut -d: -f3 # done by configure
f11244ed72b5
up to changeset c4b117c5439b
So yes, if anyone includes the word "changeset" in the commit message,
you'll have the same bug :-)
So,
hg -R "$srcdir" tip | head -1 | grep "^changeset:" | cut -d: -f3
would certainly be safer.
