Ccing eldad and dragonheart as recent version bumpers.

Will one of you be around to check and commit the new version then ?

Daniel, I've stayed up long enough waiting... gotta get some sleep.

Good news is I've done all the work for ya (working from a svn snapshot of the 0.10.10 branch from about an hour or two ago).  The only patch in the previous ebuild is no longer required.

Modified ebuild is attached.

*sigh* nevermind.  Got the announcement in my mailbox right after I pressed "Commit".

Going to build with the official tarball and make sure everything is still ok.
