Through working with upstream and other distributors, we've come to the conclusion that having upstream provide both versioned and unversioned tarballs is the best solution and avoids this issue entirely. Take-home point: When upstream does annoying crap, talk to them about it. And when they disagree, find some friends and talk to them again.
