You might use a different name internally, then rename your export.

Welcome to MzScheme version 208.1, Copyright (c) 2004 PLT Scheme, Inc.

foo's version is 1.0


Or you might define a language module that's the builtin mzscheme, but
with version renamed:

> (module mzscheme-renamed-version mzscheme
    (provide (all-from-except mzscheme version)
             (rename version mz-version)))
> (module foo-again mzscheme-renamed-version
    (define version "2.0")
    (provide version))
> (module bah-again mzscheme
    (require (prefix foo: foo-again))
    (printf "this foo's version is ~a~n" foo:version))
> (require bah-again)
this foo's version is 2.0
