Thanks -- I do not have a copy of 7.9 available, so wasn't sure what 
parameters to call.

I can certainly add this to org-toodledo.el, but I guess I fail to 
understand why it was changed in the first place.  The above solution 
means that every package out there that is dependent on org and needs to 
look up the version needs to change to work with 7.9  If org simply kept 
the org-version as a variable, there would be no need for this.

If 7.9 is still an early release, I'd suggest adding the org-version 
variable back to org so as not to break other packages that may also 
depend the version string.
