My current thinking is that it would probably be reasonable:

- To allow hashnode to sit around on SVN a bit to get some testing 
before we release something with it.

- To try to add some sort of "Mac OS X case insensitivity detection" on 
top of the hashnode (this is prompted by seeing that hashnode abstracts 
the type of "external" filenames into a separate module).

I am thinking that as soon as 0.9.8.1 is released, I should just commit 
the current version of hashnode patch and then if I want to tweak 
anything in it, I'd just do it on the "live" 0.9.8.x.
