spatch --version returns that and it looks like it even misses a \n

sibiu:~$ spatch --version
spatch version 1.0.0-rc17 with Python support and with PCRE supportsibiu:~$

sibiu:~$ rpm -q coccinelle
coccinelle-1.0.0-0.rc18.1.fc19.x86_64

This is a common problem that spatch --version is not correct; I had
reported it this year too, afair in summer.
