Yeah - but --version is also a common thing to type. So in perf we 
support both (Git does the same):

 $ perf version
 perf version 3.1.rc1.1356.g57e4aa
 $ perf --version
 perf version 3.1.rc1.1356.g57e4aa
 $ git version
 git version 1.7.6
 $ git --version
 git version 1.7.6
 $

Btw., it might also be better to output:

 kvm version 3.0.1614.geb2e2c

Instead of the current:

 3.0.1614.geb2e2c

Thanks,

	Ingo
