Argh. I had specific plans for the versioning of this package that I've
discussed before on this list and IRC.

The plan is to move the versioning to a non-native version number so that
upstream stops getting reports like "I'm using debian xorg 7.0.2343243",
which is clearly crap. Since upstream is at 7.1, the idea is to use 7.1-1
and so forth. Can we remove that trailing .0? If not, I say we don't use it
for the rest of this cycle.
