This breaks the intention behind that patch, which was to ensure that
+4 must _not_ automatically enable 4.0...

Instead, you use +/-4.0 to enable/disable 4.0, just like you use +/-4.1 
to enable/disable 4.1, +/-4.2 to enable/disable 4.2, etc, etc...

The special value +/-4 exists in order allow you to disable/enable v4
altogether. i.e. '-4' acts as a mask to turn off v4.x for all values of
x. '+4' will enable v4.x for those values of x which have been
explicitly set.
