Its only use is in buildconfig.html, and configure guarantees it's
always the same version as CC_VERSION, so just use that.

I might make this a bit more verbose, describing exactly what unexpected circumstance we wound up in, like maybe "The compiler configuration didn't return consistent results"?

I gather the `__cplusplus` bit here is to handle version-testing for the clang C compiler, which we weren't previously doing? Does this give us a usable version number in that case?

::: build/moz.configure/toolchain.configure:271
(Diff revision 1)

Can we return a `Version` here or is that too hard for some reason?

It would be nice to split up the msvc version into bits and put it in a `Version` to make these checks nicer.

Well that does work out nicely! :)

Oh, that's nicer. I still think you should move the Version wrapping up a bit.

Why not just move this to moz.configure with an old_configure_assignment while you're here?

Let's keep it like this for now. I have something else in my queue that will change it.

Not one that can be usefully used in version tests, but at least it can be displayed to the user.

Will do in a followup.
