Remi adjusted all of 10.2-gcc3.3 and most of 10.2 yesterday, and I did
the remainder of 10.2 this morning. As for 10.1...
  http://article.gmane.org/gmane.os.apple.fink.devel/6779/
but I'd be happy to also take care of the situation in the 10.1
package descriptions if you like.

For those playing along at home: previously and since the dawn of
splitoffs, :SplitOff:Package: was being evaluated in the scope of the
parent (so %n was that of the parent) while the rest of SplitOff: was
evaluated in its own scope. That means %n has different meanings in
different parts of a SplitOff. When I shuffled around and consolidated
some of the Package and PkgVersion object creation code, I didn't
propagate this behavior. All of SplitOff: is now evaluated in its own
scope, so 'Package: %n-dev' would be recursive.
