A while ago, I asked if .0 releases could be versioned with three
digits instead of two. That is, it would be "8.4.0" instead of "8.4".

We've been doing that for some time, no?  A quick look at the CVS
history shows that 8.0.0 and up were tagged that way.

This is to make the format consistent with maintenance releases ("8.4.1", etc.). I thought this was generally agreed upon, but maybe not, because I just went to build the latest 9.0 beta and saw that the version number is "9.0beta4".

.0 is for releases, not betas.  I see no need for an extra number in
beta versions.
