I've been trying to point out that there is nothing magical about a development 
release.  Development releases often get packaged as rpm's and deb's, and need 
to play nice just as stable releases.  The entity using the library needs to 
know if binary compatibility was broken, even within the sequence of releases in 
a development branch.
