After some investigations, I've found that there is a bug in the 
documentation.

This causes revision to be equal to the number of seconds since midnight, 
January 1, 2000, local time, divided by 2.

This not makes any sense, since all version numbers must be an unsigned 
short integers (0..65536) while
each day is 86400 seconds long. Or 43200 couples of second. So it 
definetelly must be the number of
seconds since midnight of the todays local time. As correctly noted here:

There is another issue with the assembly version attribute. The compiler 
does _not_ remove
the original AssemblyVersionAttribute, but also adds a new one. As the 
result, each nemerle assembly
has two attributes of the type AssemblyVersionAttribute.
It's a bug definitelly. A lot of programs tries to obtain the assembly 
version via call to
Attribute.GetCustomAttribute(someAsm, typeof(AssemblyVersionAttribute)), 
wich
throws an exception when more then one match is found.
