Since it has been broken since the move to git[1] and is unlikely to
have been particularly useful anyway, I've just merged a change[2] to
remove the version information (and the 'version' parameter) from the
API help. This may result in a warning about an unrecognized
parameter.

Also, the 'version' property in the results from action=paraminfo will
now be the empty string. It was not removed completely at this time to
avoid breaking clients where accessing an undefined property is a
fatal error; however, it should be considered deprecated and may be
removed in a future version.

Note that version information for MediaWiki as a whole is still
available via prop=siteinfo.[3]
