That's not splitting hairs at all, 3.0-RELEASE was released on the
-current branch for very specific reasons and anyone who thought this
mere "hair splitting" only served to significantly misinform
themselves about what was going on.  I've already clarified the role
of the dot-zero release in other postings in -stable so I won't repeat
myself here except to simply note that Mr. Mitev here has seriously
and significantly missed the point if he dismissed that fact so
lightly.
