ok, i have got it: The release date is the scilab's one,
not the library(ies) one.

The Description section in the getversion() help page could
be a bit more explicit. It says:
return .../... in opts build options which can be used to determine
if scilab has been build with pvm, tk or modelicac.
It could be
return .../... in opts build options which can be used to determine
if scilab has been built with pvm, tk or modelicac, as well as
the Scilab's release date (in human readable format).
