Not if he's using tla 1.1 (pre-foo).  The `two component' limit on
version numbers was removed in the 1.1 series (perhaps the tutorial
needs to be updated on this point).

I'm not sure how the sorting is supposed to work -- all my branches only
use a single version (usually just `0'!) -- but the behavior he cites
does seem a bit weird...
