Hi,

Problem solved.  Finally managed to figure it out.  0.8.21.postN is a valid
release name.  After much fiddling around there is now a *one-time only*
post release called *0.8.21.post7* (yes, it took that much trial and
terror).  This has no changes other than to setup.py which have now been
backed out.  Post releases are a real PITA, but at least anyone upgrading
using pypi normally will upgrade to 0.8.21.  Note this only exists on pypi
and only because I needed to do a workaround to overcome their fascist
rules.  The instructions given previously will also give you what you want.

...Thanks,
...Ken
