Not really.  Patch committed to branch-2 and branch-3 and trunk?  Then version 
should be whatever is sitting in branch-2.  Fix version gets set to the lowest 
version, only.  The only time that changes is when dealing with micro releases 
which will likely then need to have the micro and the minor listed (e.g., 2.8.1 
and 2.9.0) since they are now effectively different release trains.

This confusion is one of the reasons why having so many branches active is a 
bad thing, never mind the code stagnation problem.
