Yup, that also works. I was just keeping in the spirit of the
new syntax in the MegaPOV docs <g>.

The only way I can reliably reproduce the behaviour is to yank 
"Version=3.1" from my INI file, and since I would think the parser
would naturally assume version 3.1 until told otherwise, I'm
inclined to agree its a bug. A very very tiny one with an easy
workaround though, so I'm just observing, not complaining.
