I'm wondering now if Tracker 3916 is now pointless. That is if I make
the change then it will get checked/changed on the next GUB build
anyway. So if I 'fix' this it makes no difference to master (my change
was to make the \version STABLE than DEVELOPMENT release).

Let me know and I can abandon this patch.
