-1 from me on it the way it is, I don't think that bumping the middle digit
for every functionality change is a good idea.
Bug-fixes and new functionality is intermixed in our development
process. I'd propose copying the Linux/Apache/MySQL approach, where the
first digit is bumped in case of a serious infrastructure
change/rewrite; The middle digit is bumped for things that strongly affect
the way you use PHP (e.g., turning register_globals off by default, or
something equally far-reaching); The 3rd digit is bumped for everything else.
