If you're using an exported copy of the source but then applying patches on
top of that you need to remove the EXPORTED_VERSION file.
When I added that I didn't anticipate that packagers would thwart me by
downloading the tarball for the 0.27 tag then diffing that against 0.27-fixes, to
create a patch which then gets applied to the 0.27 source.
I didn't expect something so fiendishly complicated, I just naively assumed
they'd just use the 0.27-fixes tarball* from github instead in which case
EXPORTED_VERSION would have contained the correct version information and
everything would have magically worked.
