I changed the subject since we're digressing a bit off the original
RFC...
This is an interesting failure mode that we evidently didn't consider
when we wrote that script. ;-) I guess we should check $? when
returning and ensure that the command executed properly.
The only question is -- should we abort in this case, or just put in
"unknown -- could not find hg" (or whatever) as the version? I would
lean towards the latter; development machines may vary wildly in what
software is installed... Unless anyone objects, I'll do the latter.
