OK. This *isn't* the right version. x86 was updated in r1178, x86_64 in
r1179, and darwin in r1177. So r1175 does NOT have all the correct code in,
and indeed won't build.

I think what has happened is that just changing these libraries does not
fix svnversion.h (Luke, that's the problem I mentioned to you). Note this
only happens if the build was not built from a completely clean source tree
so I can only presume someone did a manual update and rebuild on the build
server. So despite the release build /saying/ it's r1175 (I presume it
does) I am betting it actually isn't, it's something later, who knows what.

Neil - can we work out what /is/ the correct stable release. A brief study
of checkins etc. suggests that the answer is r1180 (x86_64 GDraw).
Certainly r1179 fixed a P1.

Fixing things so the svnversion is always correct is part of my build
system fixes I want to do. I guess they just got more important...
