  Doesn't this further damage the human readability of the value?  I
thought that was an important reason to break it up from
sys.hexversion.  (Note also that you're not just saying more than 9
pre-releases, but more than 9 at any one of alpha, beta, or release
candidate stages.  1-9 at each stage is already 27 pre-release
packages.)
