Ahem: as I said I can not go back a version. I can't name the next TSVN
release 1.7.5-2 since we're already have version 1.7.6 out.

After sleeping on this, I'm also quite concerned about not incrementing
the TSVN version since this would confuse our users a lot, not to
mention the problems we would get on our mailing list.

I'll start a discussion on the TSVN dev list about this first, before I
can make a decision.
