Subject: Re: [ANN] Diff::LCS 1.1.0, Diff::LCS 1.0.4

The changes the Mauricio found have been checked in. I will be
re-releasing these files in the morning sometime. Because the changes
are so small, I am *not* renumbering the version (e.g., it will not be
1.1.1), but the packages will be clearly marked (e.g.,
diff-lcs-1.1.0-1.tar.gz), excepting the Gems release, which will be
either 1.1.0.1 or 1.1.0 depending on whether my tests indicate that
Gems can handle 4-level versioning. Agh. I *hate* making this sort of
error.

If this maintaining the versioning scheme will cause problems for
anyone, please let me know ASAP.
