1.10a is deemed (at least by automake and m4) to indicate a newer
version than 1.10.1. counter-intuitive? This matters because
sort --version now disagrees with that ordering:
$ printf 'automake-1.10%s\n' .1 a|sort -V
automake-1.10a
automake-1.10.1
This stems from the new gnulib filevercmp module.
There's actually a minor dependency in coreutils on the
newer automake.
