[f2py] Version

Hi,

Scipy_distutils allows (as does standard distutils) a version to be
specified to 'setup'.
A module built by f2py has a __version__ attribute which is always
'$Revision: $' (CVS way ?)

Could the setup version attribute be used by f2py to set the extension
module version ?

Example :=20

setup(name=3D"foo", version=3D"1.0", ...)

will generate a foo module that gives :

$python
>>> import foo
>>> print foo.__version__
$Revision: 1.0$

Does this make sense or am I wrong ?

I would like that some pure modules can check versions of extension
modules they load...

Thanks
