I view Fossil as supporting SQLite, not the other way around.  (Remember,
that's why Fossil was original written!)  As part of its role of supporting
SQLite, Fossil serves as a test platform for the latest SQLite alphas.  For
that reason, I want Fossil 1.28 to have the very latest trunk of SQLite,
not the most recent release.
