So you want a version of 5.0.09 that is identical to the released version
of 5.0.09, except that it has one (and only one) bug fix included?  And
the person who has running into a different bug in 5.0.09 should be able
to get a special 5.0.09 with that one (and only one) bug fix included?
And someone who has run into both should be able to get a 5.0.09 with
just those two bugfixes?  And so on, and nauseum?

So, we'll have a 5.0.09.123 and 5.0.09.512 and 5.0.09.123+512 and...
