Replacing a global scoped variable with a global scoped define doesn't really
change anything other than making it impossible for users to change.

And there is some valid reasons to change it: $wgVersion = '1.17wmf1'; ...etc
etc.

In general, I think changing it would break more stuff than it would fix, so
I'm gonna go ahead and WONTFIX this.

This is PHP, everything can be screwed up by playing loose with globals. I
don't see why $wgVersion is special.
