The package available at your link is v4.1. I have a screen shot, if you want it. I also have the PGP Support pack V4.1, so not sure if that influenced anything, but I suspect not. As far as RIM giving PGP away in the future, I have no clue. I will tell you what I do know, though. There is no PGP Support Pack included with any release of OS 4.5 (that I've come across). Last I checked, the PGP package had a minimum 10 user, ~$2K admission price; and was sold exclusively through PGP Corp. All the documentation I found listed PGP Universal Server ($$$) as a requirement; but I dug deep, and found out that it is not. Without a PGP Universal Server, you will need PGP Desktop Email ($), and you have to use a little Voodoo to get your personal keys into the blackberry, but other than that, it works like a charm.
