Get this with the version command in msfconsole (or git log -1 --pretty=oneline for a source install).

I installed Metasploit with:

• [*] Kali package via apt

The Powershell extension doesn't really load anything by default. It's a bare PS environment that needs to be populated.

I think a bigger question to tackle here is: what is deemed to be a minimal requirement for this extension as far as built-in libs and whatnot is concerned? Let's not forget we're aiming to function on a lot of different machines that will have different versions. Are we guaranteed to have support for the scripts we want loaded? Will loading them make too much unnecessary noise? Perhaps it'd make more sense to have another command that attempts to load built-in scripts?

I'm not a fan of the idea of loading these by default.
