Cheers that did the trick, the extract linked contains version info.
Interestingly, I did try the cloudmade extract, which didnt have the
version info!

I have a dataset of official spelling luxembourgish village names, as well

down to only nodes with place tags, I downloaded using the XAPI all place
nodes for Luxembourg, and been able to import the XML data into a GIS
(Manifold), and generate the updated "name:lb" and "is:in" tags. Trouble is
now, altough I planned to simply write a script to generate a valid
changeset XML to then upload to the API, now with I dont have the version
information, as it wasnt included in the XAPI ?
First, is this a omission or intended that XAPI doesnt carry the version
info? Secondly, how can I get OSM data which contains the version info? And
finally, does anyone have advice on an easier way of generating bulk changes
like this? (I am talking about 400 changes).
Have you looked at getting a proper Planet dump extract instead:

There were also some 0.5->0.6 problems with XAPI, maybe it's still
serving 0.5 data?
