True, but not much gain doing it now. But we must never use
JOHN_BLEEDING because bleeding is a moving target and what is currently
in bleeding will eventually be in magnum-jumbo (and in the end, a
release). We should have defined HAVE_GETSOURCE or something. Even more
canonical we should have defined some kind of FORMAT_STRUCT_VER when
prepare() was introduced already.
