Look in release_support at the top level and you will find
the magic used to insert the version string into a a few
files.  The exact set of files depends on the branch.

More importantly.. are all these patches in the 4.6 branch
and development trunk?  There will be a 4.6.3 and it would
be nice to address the erc32/leon users.
