(Completely off-topic, but the phrase is didn't cut muster, not didn't cut the mustard. To muster is to summon the troops or athletes or other group members; and those which fail the subsequent inspection are cut, or culled or rejected. This is the same as didn't make the cut.)

Perl and English are both very idiomatic languages.

(Back on topic.) Why the reticence to change a version number? It's a different version. The version you gave is broken, the new version is fixed. It's not a big deal if your 1.0.0.0.0.0 is broken; just upload that nice 1.1 and be happy.
