* Have kernels in the short stable 4-numbers "branchlets" (eg. 2.6.11.x)
  of the 2.6 line default to using a patch with matching 3-numbers
  version if a 4-numbers one is not found (Closes: #309147). This is
  not 100% accurate since EXTRAVERSION is used for many things, but
  well, it looks like we'll have to live with this way of numbering the
  kernels.
* Removed special handling of 2.6.8.1 as an "irregular version", since
  it falls in the above case. The "irregular version" mechanism is
  kept, in case we have to find a quick solution to another kernel
  versionning change.
* Revert abusive merging of regexp from 0.99.35: we do not need to be as
  strict on single versions are we need to be on ranged ones (Closes:
  #281801).
* Avoid spurious warning messages from dpkg-gencontrol (Closes: #263617).
