Yes! We should definitely change

  VERSION = 2.8.0

to

  VERSION = 2.9.0

Since this is currently defined at several locations, we should
probably define this only once and add it to FLAGS_TO_PASS instead.
Perhaps, we should also change MSHLINK's definition to use the first
three digits instead of the first two.

What do you think?
