The problem hinted at in the example above, downloading the wrong/old patch
number 0 modules for an x.y.^ suite is fixed at r28635. I described the fix in
part of my commit msg:

make ModuleDownloader() a constructor -- looked like a constructor, javadoc
declares it a constructor, and is called in various places as a constructor,
but it was not. With an uninitialized release variable downloadModules was
failing to find and download available patches. This caused the problem where
restarting into a x.y.^ suite would download old modules, and you'd then get
prompted to get the patches on restart. Wasteful download, extra restart. Given
as example in http://bugzilla.ecoinformatics.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5482
