I don't want to take sides in this argument, but I'd like to say
I think BOTH these major number changes were made too carelessly.

	- IMHO, the increment of the major should have been mentioned
	  with a "HEADS UP" in the freebsd-current list. It wasn't
	  apparently even said in the commit log for the change.
	- changing it back should have been made following the
	  same rules.

Just incidently, I'm still trying to put the system back to a
consistent state on my machine, beginning with sources which don't
seem to want to compile yet, and I find these commit wars disturbing,
not to mention a bit distressing.
