[wp-xmlrpc] Wordpress version from xmlrpc?

[Joe Cheng]

So far we've only been interested in the distinction between 2.1.x and earlier, and 2.2 and later. We just look at whether WP API is supported to tell us that. I'm sure it's only a matter of time though.

If folks are legitimately worried about exposing the WP version, then that's a good argument for keeping it behind authenticated XML-RPC calls.

What do you do when the WordPress version isn't provided?  There are folks out there how have been removing it from their theme templates in an effort to mask exactly which version of WordPress they are using.
