Yep.

I am a little testy on this subject as I learned just a fine days ago that 
certain distributions ship the trunk-version (which will eventually become 
2.1) as 2.0.1-bla. Most/All users ignore the bla-part and tell us about things 
working in 2.0.1 that are certainly not working in 2.0.1 because the code is 
not there. Only because distributions ship trunk as 2.0.1...
