I've been thinking about words to get the version number, and basically 
there are only two approaches that I actually like. Either a string or 
separate numbers on the stack:

: version# s" 7.5.0" ;
: version# 7 5 0 ;  (or maybe 0 5 7 ?)

Either of these would allow fairly easy checking of  the version number. 
I'm leaning towards the second approach, but what do you think?
