Ahh... I tried to get this fixed after 2.1.7, but you did it wrong,
you made MORE change than what I asked you to do. I asked you
to change ``RELEASE'' to ``STABLE'' in newvers.sh, you did that
PLUS you changed REVISION from 2.1.7 to 2.1, WRONG, get a grip,
REVISION never goes down in value!!

It doesn't even occur until after you do the release, when you
go to change ``RELEASE'' back to ``STABLE'' DON'T TOUCH THE BLOODY
