I think smarter would be one of

  V = "0.1." + "$Rev: 23 $"[/\$Rev:\s*(\d+)\s*\$/, 1]
  V = "0.1.%d" % "$Rev: 23 $"[/\d+/]
  V = [0,1,"$Rev: 23 $"[/\d+/]].join "."

To get it readable to some slight extent one should split it
up into at least two lines.

  tiny = "$Rev: 23 $"[/\d+/]

  module HL7 ; class Exception < ::StandardError ; end ; end
