PyScriptEngineFactory returns "2.5.0" (a literal in the engine 
implementation) for ScriptEngine.LANGUAGE_VERSION and 
(Version.PY_MAJOR_VERSION, Version.PY_MINOR_VERSION, 
Version.PY_MICRO_VERSION) for ScriptEngine.ENGINE_VERSION.

They should be the other way 'round.

This is part of the way that JSR-223 addresses the issue about conflicts 
in different engines (the JSR-223 API implementation) that support the 
"same" language in possibly incompatible ways.

The way we're numbering things right now, Jython 2.5.x is compatible with version 2.5 of the Python language.  Perhaps getLanguageVersion() should 
return "2.5" rather than "2.5.0", but I think they're correct as is.  (The 
names of the constants in Version.java are potentially confusing...)

OK, I just checked that in (r6587).  At least it's not hard-coded any 
more. :-)
