The "real" version number should be used for all packages that have one (ON
package, for instance, generally don't), but anything coming from
consolidations other than ON and SFW haven't been done, because no one's
actually gone to the effort of doing this.  It's a manual process, and
requires manual update each build.  I don't know whether David has the
bandwidth to do this for all the WOS packages, though perhaps we could
automate portions of the process for JDS packages.
