1.1.4.1 stands for "first revision of the 4th branch" on 1.1, and
1.1.2.1 stands for "first revision of the 2nd branch".  The former is
created after the latter.  It's not a downgrade as RELENG_6_0 is
created after RELENG_6 (hence 4 vs 2), and everything merged to
RELENG_6_0 must be part of RELENG_6 before it happen.
