There's been past discussion of further reducing the number of places with
the version number in CVS, so that exactly one file needs to be changed
when a new release branch is created / after a release is done.  The
manual needs to have this information in CVS for the purposes of
update_web_docs, so if there's one file with this information (version
number, release status) then it needs to be in the manual (and version.c
could be generated from it, along with a single file updated daily
containing just the date).
