See the very first entry in the FAQ.  Fixes are backported to the version
Red Hat or Fedora Core last released.  Per the FAQ:

 In most cases, fixes are back-ported to the current package version rather
 than  upgrading the package to a newer version. This is done in order to limit
 the  possible side-effects which can result from an upgrade. Packages are only
 upgraded to a newer version if consensus dictates that we should do so for
 some specific reason.

So don't expect a 2.0.54 to appear, but expect any security patches to be
backported to the current 2.0.51 version.
