[poppler] poppler-0.4.3 mis-tagged in CVS?

[Nix]

I noticed when CVS updating from POPPLER_0_4_2 to POPPLER_0_4_3
that an awful lot seemed to be updated for a minor release.
Diffing, say, the NEWS file shows:

 Release 0.3.3


And, WTF, features removed?

A look at the cvs log of any of the files touched by this release
indicates what's wrong:

        poppler: 1.1.1

It looks like you tagged the trunk and called it 0.4.3.
This is obviously wrong:

Could you re-tag? Right now the CVS tree is nearly impossible to fetch
0.4.3 out of, which is a bit annoying as it *does* have security fixes
in...

Thanks!
