Arek,
Thanks for the reply.  Even on the ENSEMBL mart, it says 63 (but no indication 
of patch level).  For coordinates I suspect it's not all that important, but 
for sequences it would be.  If there's no other way then one would have to 
manually determine the patch level by looking for a nucleotide that's 'new' in 
a given patch.  That's the approach I'll take if there's no other way.  But to 
do that everytime you pull data from a mart seems overkill.

Regards,
Phillipe

Hi Philippe,
there is no explicit support for assembly version. The individual 
administrators can of course use
place holders such a mart name or dataset name or description to put the names 
there as you can  see in ensembl or icgc examples

Does anyone know how to determine what patch level a given mart is using?  For 
example, if I use the following Mart, is it using GRCh37, GRCh37 Patch 3, 
GRCh37 Patch 5, etc. ?  I'm hoping there is a command you can issue in Bioperl 
where the Mart tells you exactly which Assembly it's using but open to any 
other avenue that would work.
