Generally distros can handle regressing numbers, it's just a minor
irritation.  All else being equal, I'd say let's make our release be a
number larger than the previous Mesa version that GLw was shipped under.

Looks like release.sh from xorg doesn't cover anything currently under
mesa/, so I guess idr or Brian will know best what's expected for
Mesa-project releases?
