Hum, this looks weird. I was under the impression that we'd do 4.1, 4.2 instead.

Otherwise, it'll be:

* 3.9.0
* 3.9.1
* 4.0.0
* 4.0.1
* 5.0.0
* 5.0.1

With a totally redundant zero in the middle.

Unless we're planning to extend the maintenance of the 5.x branch and
release 5.1.0 *after* 6.0.0 is out, which would be a major change in
how we release LLVM. I don't think that's the plan.

cheers,
