On a related topic (but probably not necessary for the
`count'/`getCount')...

I'm not sure if its general knowledge, but Swarm has macros
for identifying which version is being built against.  See
<defobj/version.h>.  There's also a string constant defined
in <swarmconfig.h>.  Of course, I'd try to avoid using them
if at all possible.

Marcus, any caveats to using those macros?

Ken.
