If we are going to have revision number displayed, it should not show
zero for makefile.raw builds (AFAIK all windows builds are
makefile.raw builds). I'm inclined to ignore the revision number. Too
much pain for too little gain.
Ideally the version number should be present in a single place in the
source base. We could make a file VERSION which contains only the
string "2.0.3" and which is included by both build systems to set a
VERSION variable/define that is used throughout.
