OK, so how about if we stick to the even/odd convention, plus we
include either the string 'dev' or 'unstable' in development releases?

     subversion-1.1.32-dev.tar.gz
or
     subversion-1.1.32-unstable.tar.gz

as opposed to stable releases:

     subversion-1.0.87.tar.gz

Does that seem like a reasonable compromise?
