My thinking here was that if you have different
versions, then you probably care about the versions.
In that case, it seems the right thing is to keep
enough version numbers so the files can still be
disambiguated.

Of course, it's probably a moot point; I'd be
surprised to ever see a disc that actually has
multiple version numbers.
