For kazehakase (maintained by me)
- When F-10 tree was frozen the EVR tagged as f10-final was
  kazehakase-0.5.5-1.fc9.1
- I submitted 0.5.6-1.fc10 updates on 2008-11-05
- After that xulrunner was upgraded to 1.9.0.4-1.fc10 on
  2008-11-12, kazehakase was rebuilt by gecko maintainers
  and both are tagged as f10-final on 2008-11-17.
- My updates submit was left as it was... (I have to pull it down?)
