In that context the 1 is simply an incremented release number for that
package.  As in the first attempt at modifying httpd-2.0.46-44.ent for
WBEL.  If someone finds a problem with it and no new version has been
released from RH that I can roll it into, a httpd-2.0.46-44.ent.WB2
package would be released to fix the error.

Come to think of it, just as RH sometimes hatches a package with rhel3 in
it, some additional thought as to naming schemes might be required when
WBEL4 is released, but in practice it should work out allright.  Because
if RH releases the same base version for rhel3 and rhel4 they should
already be sticking those tags into the name.
