0-day bump requests

Ioannis is right about the futility of filing 0-day bump requests.

Just a few hours after Xen 3.0.3 was announced on the xen-devel mailing list, a version bump request was filed as bug #151764.

As maintainers of a package, we're aware of when new relases are made - we're probably even following the development list and working on ebuilds for the release candidates. If a working ebuild doesn't appear in the tree within 3 hours of the upstream release announcement, it doesn't mean we need to be prodded!

Oh, and since Chris White didn't like Ioannis' choice of kitten, I've taken the liberty of finding some puppies and cute little kittens to be sacrificed in response to this latest 0-day version bump request :-)

Furthermore, i think kdebluetooth and xen is not the same category. Please, next time if someone fills a bug to request the latest, just take it as 'someone is waiting for the new version because the current sucks in some way'. It's just a feedback about someone needs your help.
