Yes, that one makes perfect sense. Note however the part about
'which display their version'. These would be modules that
use the same information in multiple places, or even have a
#define already for the version number, but do not have the
MODULE_VERSION();. What Matt did was just adding the MODULE_VERSION
call, not change it to use a new macro.
