tools/release/update_version.pl:68 does the equivalent of `s/4.0.0/4.1.0`. This is a problem because cygwin has a file in MANIFEST.generated named cygparrot4_0_0.dll and the script changes those underscores to dots.

The script should probably be changed to make the regex more strict and match only literal dots and also update filew with underscores to get cygparrot*.dll.
