Hmmm....doesn't seem to have propagated to the mirrors yet.  I'll wait
until tomorrow before announcing.  However, the setup.ini on sourceware
seems strange:

@ bzip2
[test]
version: 1.0.1-5
install: latest/bzip2/bzip2-1.0.1-5.tar.gz 445589
source:  latest/bzip2/bzip2-1.0.1-5-src.tar.gz 477483


shouldn't the other tarball, bzip2.tar.gz, be listed as the current
release?  Or do you have to specify [current] as well as [test] in the
setup.hint file?
