Re: 5.8.2 is built as 5.8.1

Here is a real need for not having 5.8.1+patches == 5.8.1, but 5.8.2.

I just workarounded a 5.8.1 bug in mod_perl 2.0, the code goes:

#if PERL_REVISION == 5 && PERL_VERSION == 8 && PERL_SUBVERSION == 1
   /* fix here */
#ifdef

now if that bug is fixed in the next few patch in maint, we have a problem, 
since my fix will be run nevertheless it has been already fixed in maint, 
since maint will still report PERL_SUBVERSION == 1. So it's quite possible 
that I won't be even able to test with maint, unless of course I start messing 
with PATCHLEVEL macro.
