Default Pages ending with a ZERO don't get indexed

Interesting thread over at SEOMOZ blog that claims to have discovered a 'flaw' with Google, They don't index pages that end with .0 (dot zero)

pages excluded from Google search results include
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_1.0
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_2.0
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Die_Hard_4.0
drupal.org/drupal-5.0
keznews.com/3799_Vista_Transformation_Pack_8.0_Final_-_VTP_8.0
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BASIC_8.0
drupal.org/drupal-6.0
en.opensuse.org/OpenSUSE_11.0
shopping.com/xGS-Illustrator_11.0
mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Opensuse_11.0
shopping.com/xGS-Suse_9.0
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mac_OS_X_10.0
en.opensuse.org/Bugs:Most_Annoying_Bugs_10.0

it seems that _0 is OK and totally not affected. Obviously this isn't going to affect a lot of people (unless you just happen to be selling SOFTWARE on your site) but it's well worth being aware of before you go ahead and launch your new product version 1.0
