"Latest" here actually means "most recent" rather than "most up-to-date"

The Net-SNMP project supports multiple lines of code,
which are released semi-independently.   We'e currently in the process
of releasing bug-fix versions of the 5.3.x, 5.4.x and 5.5.x lines.
This doesn't affect the fact that 5.6.1 is still the most up-to-date
version of the code.

The SourceForge website doesn't really handle this scenario,
and indicates the most recent release, even if it's on an older line.
