--- Comment #2 from David Edmundson <kde at davidedmundson.co.uk> ---
There should be no ABI breaks between 0.5.x versions of common-internals or API
additions (consider 3rd party apps using it, like webaccounts). Therefore
knowing the compile time version is irrelevant. (right?)

I see no reason to restrict versions between 0.5.x releases to being the same,
it will give us good practice for when we're a proper library. 

Though you're right at this point we do need to know the library version when
dealing with bug reports if the bug in an app is caused by common-internals. I
suggest a static method in the library that returns the version. Alternately
ktp-debugger can have a version attached, which will always match
common-internals.
