I second this. As someone has said, we should probably use the -rc
mechanism in the future (changing the versioning from 7.3.6 into 7.3.6.1
has a greater chance of breaking things). Allow at least one week before
the final -rc turns into final. The last -rc will be byte-to-byte
identical with the final, we just rename it. *If* the final turns out to
contain some stupid mistake, we'll just have to make 7.3.7...
Once something is released, it should not change at all.
