Merlin is having build problems with the current CVS, and has been
having for a couple of days, so the binary keeps refreshing the old
version.

Question: Is it in some way possible to get the "snapshot date" put into
the version string when you're compiling a nonrelease build? In the
"select version()" string?
I'm sure it would help in some cases :-), but I have no idea how much
work it would be, or if it's even possible.
