Right.  That's what branches do.  They cause us to go forward with 4.x
after the branch.  In the past, we've bumped the version number right
after the branch.  Because you are running something > 4.10 release
(well, in most ways, there may be a couple of fixes that are in 4.10
release that aren't in releng_4 today, but that's a grey zone, because
it clearly isn't 4.10-BETA either, neither is it 4.9-STABLE.  this is
the least bad name).
