Some people have asked that the version string be 3.3.0 instead of
3.3.  I never saw any objections to this, and I'd like to see it too.
It helps to remove the ambiguity in "3.3" (was the speaker referring
to all 3.3.* versions, or just the first?), and also helps sorting:
$ ls gcc-3.3*
gcc-3.3.0.tar.gz
gcc-3.3.1.tar.gz

versus:
$ ls gcc-3.3*
gcc-3.3.1.tar.gz
gcc-3.3.tar.gz
