[Filing for documentation, partly so I don't keep forgetting to look at
this]

b2's handling of binNMUs seems to contain some regressions relative to
b1's.

Recent diffs of the b1 and b2 results have shown that:

- b2 will accept binNMUs which increase installability
- despite having claimed to have accepted binNMUs during the run, b2
includes the original package version in the Heidi result
