It is not the intention of the design that you be prevented from modifying
the version resource in the pre-strip script as such, but that is a
side-effect of the performing the stub generation before anything else. This
latter was done at user request during the 5.0 beta if I recall correctly. I
can't remember the exact reason and it is not recorded in our change control
system. However no significant effort is involved in employing the
workaround for which I provided the necessary code, so I don't really think
it is worth investigating further.

Sorry
