Turns out, JIRA's release notes generator lists any bug whose fix
version matches the selected fix version, even if it hasn't been
fixed.

That's caused a couple of spuriously listed bugs to show up as fixed
even though they aren't.

I'm not a big fan of choosing a release for a bug fix; I want to see
if I can have the fix release field omitted from the create new issue
screen in JIRA.  On the other hand, assigning a fix release should be
mandatory when closing a bug.  I suspect JIRA has support for these
workflows.

The long and short of it is to mark the version as released in JIRA
*before* generating the release notes.  That moves the fix release for
any outstanding bugs up to the new release.
