Epoch follow this scheme: 4.0 -> 4.0p1 -> 4.0p2 where p means
patchlevel. This means that if you build 4.0p2 nine times the Emacs
verison is 4.0.9

I have the following:

         (eval emacs-version)
         "4.0.5"
         
         (eval epoch::version)
         "Epoch 4.0 Patchlevel 2"

Is this the best way?  I think not. Do I have 4.0.5 or 4.0.2?

I am told that next epoch for Epoch will be 4.1 when scrollbars will
be introduced. Why wait? Any new feature could appear, or simply bug
fixes, as Epoch goes from 4.n to 4.n++

Gordon.
