Actually, we branch only /mantisbt (or at least that's the only
directory in BRANCH_1_1_0) and I wrongly assumed we would be forced to
branch/tag also /dev and other stuff we could have in trunk/

So you are right. what I proposed can be done without moving /mantisbt
around... sorry for the noise

If Victor has no objections, I'll start adding the manual to /trunk to
see how it works; it can be moved into mantisbt later if we realize it
lacks the required "visibility".
