If you pulled from "master" branch, then --version would still
say 0.99.7; I agree it is confusing.  On the other hand, I do
not think we would want to increment the version string with
every little changes, so...

In ELinks, we pseudo-bump the version number from v1.2.3 to v1.2.3.CVS
(now v1.2.3.GIT) right after the release.

That's a nice way of doing it.  Maybe I should follow suit.
