      C:\jdk1.4\bin>java -version
      java version "1.4.0-beta"
      Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.0-beta-b65)
      Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.0-beta-b65, mixed mode)

      C:\jdk1.4\bin>

      support the -version flag for all command line tools
      starting with javac, rmic and other

      This would greatly help when there is some path issue and a tool of a given
      version is used instead of another one.

      For my work, I need to have/workwith multiple JDKs/JREs as many other developers
      in fact. Knowing which versions I'm using would sometimes help to
      solve fast some strange behaviors.
