Hi,
Currently the libc collation version for Windows has two components
coming from the NLSVERSIONINFOEX structure [1]
dwNLSVersion and dwDefinedVersion
So we get version numbers looking like this (with 16 beta1):
postgres=# select collversion,count(*) from pg_collation group by
collversion;
  collversion  | count
---------------+-------
           |     5
 1539.5,1539.5 |  1457
(2 rows)
According to [1] the second number is obsolete, and AFAICS we should
expose only the first.

dwDefinedVersion
    Defined version. This value is used to track changes in the repertoire
    of Unicode code points. The value increments when the Unicode
    repertoire is extended, for example, if more characters are defined.
    Starting with Windows 8: Deprecated. Use dwNLSVersion instead.

PFA a patch implementing that suggestion.
