I think we made the method report the hardcoded version to fool the
broken sw which relies on the version.
We may go with your changes and wait for someone to complain, or maybe
we should check an environment variable like:

	PROGRAMMER_TOO_LAZY_TO_WRITE_PORTABLE_CODE=beatmeharder
and report the fixed version in that case.
