Pretty much, yup.  The confusion reigns when we aren't sure if a user is
complaining about 1.34-dev, 1.34-RC1, 1.34-RC2 or 1.34-Gold.  So this gives
us a very simple binary question (did you grab from SVN or take a release
al la CPAN) to decide if the user is running what we expected.

And as folks have hinted, version no's are cheap :)
