Why shouldn't the magic number be bumped when a bug in the bytecode is fixed in a bugfix release? How did this break Fedora? Are you not shipping source code but only .pyc files?

I view the whole point of having the magic number is to cover things like this, otherwise we might as well just embed the CPython version number in the file name and be done with it.
