Profile/configuration versions are supposed to be in metadata.xml, and
should only be updated if the configuration changes. The package version
should most definitely not be in metadata.xml.

Plone 3.3 will not use metadata.xml at all to determine the package
version. Instead if will look at the package version as defined in
setup.py with a fallback to version.txt.
