Yeah this is one of those C++ template tricks where one wonders if it's really worth it doing it in C++. Also the purpose seems to be to mark every build as unique. You'd want to store that number somewhere, or it wouldn't be very useful at all. You know, some small database with <who compiled>,<when>,<machine>,<commandline>,<version> and maybe even a diff compared to a known revision number. To really make it useful. That ... just wouldn't be doable in C++.
