Done.

Hmm... currently the GNU ELPA scripts can understand the situation where
the release and the -devel code come from two different branches of the
same repository, but having the release come from :core and the other
from :url would require a fair bit of changes I think.

I believe it would be easier in that case to make both the release and
the -devel versions come from :url (and not use :core at all).
