 While testing a plugin of mine for 2.5 compatibility I ran into an issue
 with the plugin update notification. My latest version prior to updating
 was 2.02. After I performed some fixes I bumped the version to 2.1.
 Immediately after doing so the plugin page reported the following:

 There is a new version of Google Analyticator available. Download version
 2.02 here or upgrade automatically.

 Obviously, I'm running a newer version then the latest, so I don't think
 this message should be displayed. I did some testing to see if I could get
 the message to go away. I changed the version to 2.10 to see if that would
 get the message to go away. No go. Then I set it to 2.03 and the message
 went away. So, the plugin update notification is not detecting that 2.1 is
 higher than 2.0x.
