On the other hand, this is one of the few cases of changing the version
that is probably a good idea.  It was reported against 2.x and has been
shifted over to 1.x.  That it's not a 2.x specific bug is useful info.

Otherwise, Bill is right.  Do NOT shift a version number to a higher
version just to show interest as thats not helpful.  A ping and a note
that it's still broken is sufficient.

Later,
Brad
