All of the Debian packages are based upon H.J.'s versions. In fact, the
tarball within the .orig.tar.gz is straight from his ftp area. Any
patches applied are contained the the debian/patches dir in the source
package.
Also, why should I diverge from the numbering scheme when no other vendors
are? There are sub-versioning done on a Debian level anyway (ie. the
latest package in the archive is 2.11.92.0.5-2).
