   Ship your executables with the version of Scintilla you tested
with. You should never depend on a DLL that just happens to be
available.

   It is the standard mechanism on Windows.

   Adding more copies of this information means they are less likely
to be consistent and it is additional work for me when producing
releases. The only chance of this going in is if there is a script
(probably an addition to src/LexGen.py) that updated all copies of the
version number.
