Commit your changes on the main trunk, then move the branch points to the
newly commited release number. This usually only works for a single file.
There once was a tool on Molli's CVS page which helped with this kind of
applying the same modification to several branches at the same time. I think
it's name was "cvslines" or something similar.

And, BTW, moving branch tags is not obvious, but it is described somewhere
in the doc.
