The 2.3.4-Installer-X files are different installers for the same
binary, built from the 2.3.4 tarball. The installer numbers do start
from 1, as you say, but that can be different from the binary that is
installed: If there's some bug in the installer itself, then there might
be a -2 or -3 (as there was here). So 2.3.4.3-Installer-3 is built from
the 2.3.4.3 tarball; I called it '-3' because that seemed less confusing
than calling it '2.3.4.3-Installer-1'.

So the initial installer should be 2.3.5-Installer-1. Updated numbers
would depend upon why there was an update: If it's just the installer,
then 2.3.5-Installer-2; if it's the binary itself, then
2.3.5.1-Installer-2; etc.
