Certainly it would be better to use a variable than straight text where
possible.  But, please, no address@hidden cvs keywords (which have bugger-all
connection to anything real anyway).

Where do all these instances of release numbers occur anyway?  (Kim?)

Cases in lisp code obviously should refer to a lisp variable instead
(emacs-version, emacs-next-major-release :-).

Cases in help text or texinfo could possibly be addressed with some
analogous mechanism.
