OK, I think I understand. Utilities class >>
#setSystemVersionFromConfig: sets the update number to the sum of the
version numbers in the latest config.

Which explains why Tony's update number is around 100 past what I
think it should be; he has XML-Parser (35), Universes (45)  and
Nebraska (33) loaded, adding 35 + 45 + 33 = 113 to his total.

So perhaps the thing I should have done is that when I removed these
packages, I should have incremented SqueakVersion's version number by
114?
