#5994: singular.version() yields an error when first called, has no doctest, and
has a strange output imo

Comment(by SimonKing):

 Remark:

 Apparently the problem is on the side of Singular.

 In Singular, freshly started, when you do
 {{{
 > system("--version");
 }}}
 there is the error (it says "? cannot open `help.cnf`").
 If you repeat, no error.

 If people think that my suggestion would break code, I suggest to have a
 new method {{{singular.version_number()}}}.
