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?
