it's just the version of that particular binary.

Gwenview: 2.4.0
Dolphin: 1.5
KPatience: 3.4

it's not particularly unusual. of course:

Konqueror: 4.5.64 (KDE 4.5.64 (KDE 4.6 >= 20100811))

so some apps do track the platform version. some don't. i'm not particularly 
wedded to it either way. a benefit to making it == the KDE Platform version is 
that we don't have to manually update it every time. the negative is that it 
no longer tells us which version of plasma-desktop they are running, but which 
version of the KDE Platform the built it against, meaning people with 
different versions of plasma-desktop but the same version of KDE Platform 
would have the same version #s for plasma-desktop! (or vice-versa).

yes, that change should be made. will do so right now.
