That's the development branch.  I'm talking about the driver version.=20
Inside the if_bce.c file, you will find this:

/***************************************************************************=
*/
/* BCE Driver Version=20
*/
/***************************************************************************=
*/
char bce_driver_version[] =3D "v0.9.6";

Is that the version you installed?
