I suspect that's because it wasn't done correctly.  Stringizing works only 
in the context of a macro.

Consider the following session:

--- begin included file ---
C:\Dave>type tstr.c
#define VERSION 1.23

#define Stringize(x) #x
#define Stringize_Value(x) Stringize(x)

char version_symbol[] = Stringize(VERSION);
char version_string[] = Stringize_Value(VERSION);
float version_value = VERSION;


C:\Dave>avr-gcc -E tstr.c
# 1 "tstr.c"
# 1 "<built-in>"
# 1 "<command line>"
# 1 "tstr.c"





char version_symbol[] = "VERSION";
char version_string[] = "1.23";
float version_value = 1.23;

C:\Dave>
--- end included file ---

Regards,
  -=Dave
