Thanks a lot for everyone's insights and suggestions!

For the record:

I have now shed a bit of old baggage in my code.
(I did the version management and the build number incrementing too cumbersome;
I must have picked up the CFBuildNumber somewhere 14 years ago ...)

Anyways, I am now using the CFBundleVersion for the build number (1, 2, 3, ...)
and the CFBundleShortVersionString for the human-readable version number 
(3.1.2).

I am using essentially these lines in my shell script:
        buildNumber=$(/usr/libexec/PlistBuddy -c "Print CFBundleVersion" $plist)
        buildNumber=$(($buildNumber + 1))
        /usr/libexec/PlistBuddy -c "Set :CFBundleVersion $buildNumber" $plist
which gets executed by Xcode in a "Run Script" phase before the "Compile" phase.

Best regards, Gabriel
