Well, I did find a way in which version numbers can get mucked up, but
it'd be kind of hard for it to happen. It would basically require very
slow publishes. I'm not completely convinced that my recently-
committed fixes will address the issue, though I certainly hope so.
The attached patch has the relevant fixes, including for Scott's Bug
#1417. Please do apply this to your Bricolage instance, Matt, and let
me know if the problem of story version number corruption goes away or
continues.
Thanks!
