yes :0 thats why it's in my commit log - we need to do this for sanity. i
downgraded ONLY those packages that were pre_ something and needed downgrading.
the extra .001 is now instead of that - and lets us to just a set of releases
without having to bum the maj/min/micro version. we can bump those separately as
needed. so the .specs just need to add an extra version filed (the .001). it may
be time to make all the packaging stuff auto-generated... :/
