Let me know if I understand correctly: that's because you don't want default.mk to contain a manually inserted ORGVERSION variable, right? Otherwise I don't see the problem with having a fallback ORGVERSION variable in default.mk (which I'll happily insert manually, to have a taste of the Good Old Days, when (defconst org-version "...") was still in org.el... :) -- Bastien
