I think this rules are quite strict, in first iteration would be enough
to keep only latest from each "major" version

where major version is defined by common-sense (ie first 2 version
number for xorg, but somewhere first number is enough)

ie for xserver-xorg:
../dev/recipes/xorg-xserver/xserver-xorg_1.2.0.bb
../dev/recipes/xorg-xserver/xserver-xorg_1.3.0.0.bb
../dev/recipes/xorg-xserver/xserver-xorg_1.4.2.bb
mv ../dev/recipes/xorg-xserver/xserver-xorg_1.4.bb
mv ../dev/recipes/xorg-xserver/xserver-xorg_1.5.1.bb
../dev/recipes/xorg-xserver/xserver-xorg_1.5.3.bb
mv ../dev/recipes/xorg-xserver/xserver-xorg_1.7.1.bb
../dev/recipes/xorg-xserver/xserver-xorg_1.7.4.bb

and update preferred-xorg-versions (1.7.1->1.7.4) and other if needed

JaMa: move older minor versions to obsolete, keep latest for each "major"
