Yep; I know already.
Those extended regexps aren't fully in-grained for me yet,
as I grew up with Perl 4, not 5, and am a little out of practice.

How about:  (?:Version|(?:BETA|TESTER) RELEASE)?

Excellent. 

What about this new  pnmcrop  version?

 ... and making it easier to use language-customised LaTeX versions;

 e.g.  platex, hrlatex, hulatex, silatex, etc.

and even hugelatex  when some images may require it.
