OK, so if there are no objections, I'm going to add

  SCM_GUILE_MAJOR_VERSION
  SCM_GUILE_MINOR_VERSION
  SCM_GUILE_MICRO_VERSION

to version.h, which will actually become version.h.in.  This will also
result in the removal of versiondat.*, and a couple of modifications
to version.c to accomodate the new names, and the fact that the values
will be integers, not strings.

I will then use these values to allow guppi to switch behaviors,
depending on which guile it's compiled against.
