branching.html lists all the places that need changing for new major 
versions (mutatis mutandis for this case where the version number changes 
on mainline without an associated branch).  It is however out of date with 
regard to Gerald's changes to do snapshots from multiple branches; some 
special measures may be needed so that the first 4.0 snapshot has diffs 
from the last 3.5 one (and branching.html should document the applicable 
special measures).
