i didnt bumped it because there was no change in a working abi, as in
the broken functions from the release before will not enter production
because they just dont work :P. Strictly speaking one should always bump
versions when somethings changes but since the nobug user community is
small and no end-users are affected i'd rather aim to keep the library
version numbers small. Of course this breaks apps which using the
defective 201001.3, but in this way it's rather a deliberate nudge not
to use some defective lib.
