And still nobody has said what script was used to bump the spec files.
The one in cvs/fedora originally came from either notting/sopwith and was
improved for the fedora extras mass-rebuilds. It could be enhanced to
support the jpp scheme and also add a "bump-least-significant" fallback
for any "invalid" versioning schemes. But if a different and secret script
is used, that's not helpful.
