In short: No. That's an addition, so best left to the next minor version.

Long form:

I would point out that in software development, bug fixe releases (ie 0.48-1 to 0.48-2) generally only include bug fixes for regressions and bugs introduced in the latest minor version ie. 0.48. Minor versions introduce additions and changes (ie. 0.48 to 0.49) and major versions introduce major breaking API changes or some sort of "plateau" (ie 0.48 to 1.0).

It can get *very* confusing if you refer to a specific bug fix release version that introduces some sort of small or large change. The Pd compatibility modes are also only minor versions an don't refer to bugfixes versions.
