I agree. Just release 11.88 or even better 11.88.1. The latter
major.minor.micro scheme is what I also use for the ELPA package. That
indicates clearly that it's the official 11.88 release + a bit more. Of
course, then people that use both XEmacs with your auctex package and
Emacs with the ELPA package could falsely assume that xemacs-auctex
x.y.z and elpa-auctex x.y.z are identical, but I think we can just
ignore that.
