Given a concrete (built) Emacs, are there a way to know the bzr
revision that was used to build it?

No, currently it is not possible. I have suggested that it should be,
however. And I have added that to my patched version of
Emacs+EmacsW32. (Unfortunately I have not time at the moment to build
that version.)

Yes, currently it is possible.  Open the file in the Emacs distribution
that you'd like to work on.  In the mode line, you will see the
Bzr-<revno> you are looking for.

But I think, Lennart, you gotta use the development branch to see this.
I don't understand why you need the revision number if you're not using
it---it just doesn't make sense to me.

That's the revision of the source tree, not of the running binary.

As Eli explained this is not the revision number of the binary.

Oh, yes. It makes sense. I provide both the revison number of the
development branch and my patched branch.

What's the `revision of the running binary'?

The bzr rev number of the sources it was built from? At least that is
what I have defined it as.
