Perhaps it would still be nice to have version number 2.04 now as
current CVS version is different enough from 2.03 release and programs
should be able to distinguish between them.
Maybe it would be nice to add also some sign in sys/version.h that one is
using development version of DJGPP.
For example gcc version in CVS is bumped before release not after that:
soon after release of gcc-3.0.2 version were bumped to
gcc-3.0.3 YYYYMMDD (prerelease)
(YYYYMMDD - date)
