Not sure if they were being changed or not.
If they are not then there is no purpose in having a number there. If they do serve a purpose
still then a minor version change to show that it now supports quiesce would seem to be in line.
I know there was discussion about such version info in drivers 2-3 years ago and whether they
show be used to show features or if the package version info should do so. At least, that is
what I recall, but it has been a while since I was at Sun.
