Yes. All released versions of the "new" setup have had the fix. The
only ones we need to worry about are old beta versions of the new setup
and the original GUI setup.

I don't grok regex's very well, but have we dropped support for tar.gz?
Also, how many special cases are we going to have? I understand
wanting to keep xfree-fonts-75dpi-VER-REL instead of
xfree-fonts_75dpi-VER-REL or
xfree-fonts-dpi75-VER-REL
but are we venturing down a path we don't really want to follow?
