Uhhhh, don't do that. If you keep any touch on continuity and
reliability moving labels runs you into big troubles if anybody wants to
rebuild exactly the previously released version. Perhaps, I'm too
strict, but within the projects I have joined moving real release labels
was always a desaster.

What about spending a new label like Release1.1 for the bug-fixed version.
But nevertheless that's Mercurial- not ClearCase-mailinglist.
