Should should make it a priority to figure out which version of OpenCV
is available before releasing 0.3.  Do you have any ideas?   I was
hoping they'd have a function such as version(), but I think I'm out
of luck.

This has been a constant source of annoyance, so I wonder whether we
shouldn't just stop tracking the C files.  We could always still
include C files in the source distribution.
