That behavior is indeed a problem. Still we need a way to ensure that we have
the same version number accross all frameworks when we release.

And to avoid the current problem it sounds likely to me that it would be a
file generated when we create the release tarballs. CMake could then pick it
up when executed, if said file is not present (e.g. developer build) then
CMake should probably use the git revision instead.

How does that sound? Sensible or smoking crack?
