The package script automatically puts the version (and revision)  
numbers in the Info.plist using a version number that is specified as  
an option to the command. The classvars in Main have to be edited  
manually and apparently so does SConstruct. We could add a VERSION  
text file to the root of svn which is read by all three (the package  
script, Main, and SConstruct), which would work well...I considered  
this for 3.2 but decided I'd need to change too much.
