Calling a string an enum seemed discordant, and version is sort of a
reserved word (at least as far as Emacs D-Mode colorizing is concerned)
so in the end I went with:

immutable auto versionNumber = strip(import("VERSION"));

which seems to do the job very nicely. Thanks for your response to my
original question, most helpful. :-)
