I would say it doesn't - there's a quick tour that shows it *using*
1.2, but the official readme that the tour links to says to download
Clojure 1.1. Of course, I couldn't find anything that really looks
like a release, so maybe I'm looking in the wrong place.

On the other hand, if you're grabbing sources from a repo, then you're
(again) using unreleased software, and it's not at all uncommon for
people building things like labrepl to work with unreleased versions
of things in the role that clojure plays, so that they'll have the
1.2-clojure version of labrepl ready to roll out when clojure 1.2 is
released.
