[kgb-maintainers] Bug#612922: Stable update for kgb-bot

Hi,

Please allow the attached diff in kgb-bot to stable. There are two 
changes:

 1. Fix the regular expression used in debian/rules for checking 
    whether the package version matches the "upstream" version. We are 
    also upstream of the software and the check is there to ensure we 
    increase the version synchronously.
    The check in 1.05-1 doesn't work if the revision part has any 
    non-digits. It works in normal circumstances, but fails (before 
    this change) for versions like 1.05-1+squeeze1. The package is an 
    IRC bot, so security updates aren't totally impossible and they 
    would break due to this check.

 2. I use the opportunity to "slip in" another change that addresses 
    another, non-critical part of the package. Without it, an 
    interesting and useful functionality doesn't work -- automatic 
    replies using polygen. The diff is minimal (2 lines), so I hope it 
    passes your threshold.

Thanks for your time!
