The gcc-2.5.7 stub version was a mistake, but it did teach everyone
about (1) version numbers, (2) stubedit, and (3) the maintainence
release.  The version in make is correct, as it *does* require the
1.11.maint1 go32.

For safety, stub.exe and coff2exe always have the latest version
number in case you do use a bugfix without realizing it.  You can
always stubedit it back down if you know it's safe.
