This was modified in b893859c34 even though it
wasn't really required. Some users are experiencing problems after changing
to 1.0 - once those are identified the client will returned to 1.0.
Previously was dependent on how python was compiled, and this was causing
build errors for some Macintosh Snow Leopard users. The solution is to use
a functionality already in WAF which looks at the output of
echo | gcc -E -dM -
This is the error that was encountered:

With the more detailed node.version changing (every commit), having
node_version.h exposed to all modules required a complete recompile each
time a commit was made.
People can use the javascript interface to get the version.
