Yes, we haven't had a chance to iron out bugs in the release procedure so
I'd say we need a proper RC release before 0.5.0.

But there's more to it than make distcheck. At this point I think it would
result in wrong version strings in the binary. We have a script,
tools/release.sh, that (when used correctly) patches configure.in with the
correct version string, builds source packages, creates the proper tags,
prepares the repository for the next release cycle and whatnot. Please use
that. Some manual steps may be needed too:

Check the git log to see how the 0.4.0 release and preceding RCs were
handled. Right now, the repository looks nothing like that.
