Well, I remembered that I had put in my project my own shell script build
phase which overwrites the Info.plist. (Sorry, duh!!!)
So, I started a brand new "Cocoa Application" project in Xcode just to test
this, and also I used the ${...}. Result: Now, instead of getting my
placeholder in the output, I get an empty string. The Build Log shows that
the gcc is indeed reading my RELEASE_VERSION=2.2.2 and making it a -D
option, but it doesn't make it to the product's Info.plist. The
${EXECUTABLE_NAME} and ${PRODUCT_NAME} strings, by contrast, don't show up
in the Build Log but DO make it into the product!
