No, it doesn't, and I don't think we're doing anything useful right now with the parsed driver version. We only use the parsed OpenGL version, which is the same format everywhere.
Once upon a time we passed that version to the windows game, but as you said, this doesn't make sense. So these days we have a (PCI_VEN/PCI_DEV)->driver version mapping where we hardcode the latest known Windows driver version(that table needs an update). I think the other idea to keep the driver version passing was to be able to work around known bugs, but currently there aren't and driver version dependent workarounds, and I don't know if there ever will be(we dislike hacks to workaround bugs). So feel free to kill the whole driver version parsing.
