It'll probably make some of them work and break others.  It's pretty 
hard-coded in most of them that the flow is from 2.6.25 -> 
2.6.26-{pre,rc}*; whether or not they permit a zero probably depends on 
if they know what is available or not (ketchup wouldn't be able to, for 
example, but the kernel.org incdiff robot *might* "just work".)
