#version version;

// THEN:

#ifdef(software_version)
  #version software_version;
#else
  #version 3.7;
#end


The idea being that you can always access the actual software version, even if
you haven't "stored" the value in another variable.

It sounds to me like #version MyVersion "overwrites" this value, and it is then
lost.

I'm also writing this from the perspective that there will big changes when 4.0
gets written from the ground up, and I gathered that the whole
backwards-compatibility thing might be scrapped at that point.
