I'm struggling thinking what would be a sensitive version number? According to http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-source.html#s-dpkgchangelog, that's the version of the upstream package, and the changelog details what differences we do make in respect to the upstream package. We obviously haven't got an equivalent of an upstream package, but the version of the package to which this change was applied to was 5.1.70-14.8, because we patch the 5.1 version at its lowest common denominator with 5.5.

Patching it with the latest release (5.1.71-14.9) wouldn't make too much sense as well, and patching it with the number of the next release is impossible in much of the cases since we don't know the next release number (in most cases).
