Well *I* didn't do a full import because I'm not our CVS maintainer
and I don't want to be the CVS maintainer.  I like the job our current
CVS maintainer does and I'm content to wait until he is ready to
import a new version.

So instead I followed standard procedure for incorporating a bugfix
from upstream without importing a new version.  I'm not sure what's so
messy.
