Why does the compiler, dmc.exe, show version 8.42n from a download marked C/C++ version 8.5?

It's a bit confusing, but dmc.exe is just a frontend that runs the compiler and linker.  scppn.exe is the actual compiler, the one I've got installed has version 8.50.4n.

You can download a beta too, which fixes a few problems with the compiler.
