> Add primitiveImageFormatVersion, an optional named primitive answering the image format number of the current image. This is the value stored in the first word of an image file header when the image is saved, and possibly modified on image load if the VM adds or removes capabilities for the running image. This primitive was added to VMMaker trunk in VMMaker-dtl.169.
