I'll bump that in stable/2.16, so it will be fine in 2.16.1.  We were  
discussing what to put in VERSION for the release of 2.16.0, and it was  
more or less considered correct to put the last already released version in  
there.  Considering this issue, that appears to have been a mistake, and we  
should likely rethink this for 2.18.0.

Now, what should I place in VERSION_UNSTABLE?  I guess currently 2.17.1,  
but should I update that before releasing 2.16.1?  Should I bump VERSION  
_together_ with making the release announcement?  Shouldn't we do that for  
unstable releases as well?
