It's some Windows identifier which is not necessarily related with the
Vim version (major.minor.patchlevel) as we know it. I suppose it comes
frome somewhere in the source, but I'm not sure exactly where...

Ah, there: src/version.h line 22:
#define VIM_VERSION_BUILD 277

see also e.g. src/vim.rc lines 63-64
FILEVERSION
VIM_VERSION_MAJOR,VIM_VERSION_MINOR,VIM_VERSION_BUILD,VIM_VERSION_PATCHLEVEL
PRODUCTVERSION
VIM_VERSION_MAJOR,VIM_VERSION_MINOR,VIM_VERSION_BUILD,VIM_VERSION_PATCHLEVEL

Best regards,
Tony.

Well, my terminal's locked up, and I ain't got any Mail,
And I can't recall the last time that my program didn't fail;
I've got stacks in my structs, I've got arrays in my queues,
I've got the : Segmentation violation -- Core dumped blues.

If you think that it's nice that you get what you C,
Then go : illogical statement with your whole family,
'Cause the Supreme Court ain't the only place with : Bus error views.
I've got the : Segmentation violation -- Core dumped blues.

On a PDP-11, life should be a breeze,
But with VAXen in the house even magnetic tapes would freeze.
Now you might think that unlike VAXen I'd know who I abuse,
I've got the : Segmentation violation -- Core dumped blues.
-- Core Dumped Blues
