 I think this is the best solution, even without the version information.
 I'd also advocate keeping the stub as long as possible, purely for
 discoverability. dports, are you willing to do this or shall I figure out
 the replaced_by business? (Also, even in the revtex stub, I'd bump to 4-1
 nominal version number anyway, to at least advertise the correct current
 version in texlive-publishers.)

 Many thanks.
