Portalplayer bootloader versions are a bit confusing:
Sansa bootloaders have nice version numbers. The current version is 5.0,
the next will be 6.0
Released H10 and mr100 bootloaders don't have version numbers, and use svn
revisions instead. H10 is r12862:12866-070320, mr100 is r12345-080318.
Then it looks like whoever released those did it wrongly...
The way to set these numbers seems to be to either edit
tools/version.sh, which can't be committed to the bootloader release
branch because it's too global (it sets *all* versions), tools/configure
(same problem, and this is really the wrong place anyway), or
build/Makefile (build directory, so can't be committed either).
It has always been done with "make VERSION=xxx", and then that SVN
revision tagged. i.e. the version number itself isn't committed, just
used in the name of the tag.
