Looking at dist.sh, your concern would be addressed by adding another
line for SVN_VER_PATCH to that sed script in dist.sh. Then the same
version would work on both trunk and 1.1.x. This is what I will do.

On the other hand, I think what dist.sh is doing is excruciatingly
wrong. The release script shoudl not be changing the numbers in
svn_version.h, it should be _taking_ the numbers from there. I think
this is very, very broken. We're saying, "forget about all the effort we
put into source control and release branch stabilization, the RM is
right even if she happens to mistype the version number on the command
line."
