No reverting necessary, perhaps; see below.

Yesterday I updated the file en_US/Kernel.xml with the (more correct)
kernel version.  The plan was to update the PO files by hand after
translators were finished.  It didn't occur to me that if anyone updated
their XML files and rebuilt locally, they could generate a new POT file.

In hindsight, it would have been a good idea for me to announce the XML
change so people could ignore it.

Now that we have a changed POT committed, what is the best thing to do
in terms of:

* CVS best practice
* PO/POT best practice

Open for ideas ...
