I understood the vim webpage to say that this version is "6.3a" (which is consistent with the Source and SourceDirectory) not "6.3" as your Version...that this is a prerelease of a future 6.3 version. If so, how do you plan to handle the versioning of that future package?

(FWIW, "6.3rel" sorts later than "6.3a", but there are probably other solutions as 
well).

I guess I'll just increment the revision number and leave the version at 6.3. It is in the unstable tree after all (although in retrospect I realize that are more elegant solutions). I thought it was important to get the 6.3 pre-release out since many users have complained of compile errors with 6.2.
