In mainline (post 0.0.9), we no longer need elaborate version-massaging tricks to appease RPM. Simple ones will do.

-#   - Otherwise, we mangle it heavily:
-#     * To make 0.0.Xpre come after 0.0.{X-1}* but before 0.0.X, we prepend
-#       0.0.{X-1}.99 to the version.
-#     * We replace pre with .pre. and rc with .rc.
-#     * We replace -cvs with .cvs, and lack of -cvs with .release.

-# Note that this scheme will break if we ever use 0 as a last digit for a
-# Tor version: so don't do that.
