One option:
1. open the source file for the package
2. Call (read) until port-line / port-column are beyond the
package-location of the package
3. At that point you have the ending location of the package.
Then limit your substitute* to work within those lines.
Another option would be to extend substitute* to start on a certain
line, and to limit the number of substitutions. That way if you start
on package-location and limit to one substitution you are likely to
update the correct version.
