OK, so in a nutshell: Everything is fine with the binary releases, it can just 
be the case that different platforms might see different package versions of 
non-core packages. No big deal to upgrade/downgrade later, given our package 
system/Cabal.

This makes sense, and it would be good if all packages in 
darcs.haskell.org/packages agreed on this numbering scheme. One minor 
question: Who will actually push those three patches and when?
