Re: CVS versions of gdb have same number as stable version.

Andrew Cagney suggests:

> trunk: gdb-5.1-20054705
> 5.1 branch: gdb-5.0.99, gdb-5.1 (tag), gdb-5.1.0.90, ...

Anything that is not "5.0" works for me.

I like having both a version number and a date in it. I would also
like "-cvs" for versions built out of CVS pulls (as opposed to
releases and snapshots).

If the discussion comes to a conclusion, it would be helpful to record
the conclusion in PR gdb/22 as a spec for someone to do the work.

My two cents,
