Certainly on v1 and v2 he was targeting v5.15, not upstream. When I
replied to v1 I told him this. Apparently he messed up still on v2.
Matthias again pointed it out on v2. After v2, it was corrected. ...so
right, you didn't get v1 and v2 and those of us on the email thread
pointed that out and it got corrected. I'm not sure what happened to
v3, but that seems like yet another mistake and I believe Matthias
also commented on this. Here we're on v4 which is correctly tagged as
v4 and sent (as far as I can tell) mostly correctly. It makes sense
that you're surprised that v4 came without you seeing earlier
versions, but given that the error had already been identified and
corrected (which is why you got v4 at all) then I don't think we need
to keep debugging it, right?
