Best 90 minutes I've ever spent in my life. I could've done string comparisons, but somehow I suspect their format is more likely to change in the future than the numeric versions. Also, beware that the upstream documentation (both on their wiki and their source) does not accurately reflect history -- the version numbers for releases between 0.9.3 and 0.9.5 were vastly different, and this version of the algorithm I wrote seems to be the best fit for all of them.)
