Hi Rony, with the remark that this version identifier is a revision number from a specific version management system (Subversion) and has proven difficult to reproduce in others. Also, it adds a build dependency that is only there for one reason (tho’ I built a few versions from my updated-to-GA git repo and did not see trouble- but formally it is).
