I don't see this on the wiki - what's the plan for replacing
'parrot_config revision' , which is currently used by languages
targeting non-released versions of parrot to determine if they have a
new enough version to proceed?

Right now, this is saying "r1" (under svn, this would have returned
something like "12345")

Please see http://trac.parrot.org/parrot/ticket/1845

The current plan is to provide three config keys

'revision' for backward compatiblity
'sha1' for the git sha1
a third revision key (not sure yet which name) which contains output from 'git describe --tags', which can be used for comparison (albeit a bit more complicated than numbers)

Once parrot does that, I plan to update Rakudo's Configure.pl, you can steal from there once it's in place.

Cheers,
Moritz
