Yeah, a new numbered release deserves it's own ebuild, even if it has to 
linger in package.mask.  Make sure it's been 2-3 days after the release 
and then file a version bump bug.  Please report if "simply renaming" the 
existing ebuild works and/or what you had to change to get a clean 
compile/install.

If you follow Wesnoth closely, but aren't part of upstream, you might 
consider becoming a/the gentoo package maintainer for it.  IIRC, IMHO, the 
packaging for Wesnoth could use a little "love".
