The orig tarballs are indeed Git snapshots and the code base is newer  
than the upstream release number given. In fact, the package version  
contains the Git revision hash (shortened) and from that you can  
derive what code is actually shipped in the package.

The overall idea is to have an easy upgrade path when you want to  
return from nightly builds (test test test) back to a stable release  
build.
