How odd. Verified here, but I found a quirky work around. The D7 docs claim 
it's a system variable, but apparently you have to declare it as a global 
first.

global version
on startMovie
   member("report").text = version
end

I guess it makes sense after all since the message window automatically 
declares variables as globals.
