Many schemes were discussed, I can't remember them all but I'm sure you're
right.  Perhaps we could decide now.

Well report-emacs-bug just seems to look for three dots:

(string-match "\\..*\\..*\\." "22.0.98.1")
2
(string-match "\\..*\\..*\\." "22.1.1")
nil
(string-match "\\..*\\..*\\." "22.1")
nil

What are the other files?  Do they just test for three dots also?
