Recent @version changes...

Dfs:

One reason to use $Id: $ instead of the actual version is that in the Open
Source world, someone could be downloading your source code from CVS and
working with that. Then, if they report a bug, the @version of the file
won't be anything meaningful, where as if you keep the $Id: $ there, the
result is indeed something meaningful.
