Backport to fix polling with multiple screens
In xscreensaver v6.02, it is not possible on my system to obtain the version of
the running process with `xscreensaver-command -version`. It also affected
`-time`. It may be due to having a multi-screen setup with xscreensaver being
started from the first screen.
The fix appears to be in v6.03 where the `version` is reset only once before
polling all the screens. Since it appears it may take more work before that
version can be committed to ports, I have backported the fix.
