For future reference, take a look at how I handle this in the BIND
ports. If you'd named the _port_ 0.3.a1_2, then when 0.3 comes out,
pkg_version is smart enough to know that it's > 0.3.a*.

PS, PORTEPOCH is evil, and must die.

For many package tools to work correctly, it is of utmost importance
that
version numbers of a port form a monotonic increasing sequence over
time.
Refer to the FreeBSD Porter's Handbook, 'Package Naming Conventions' for
more information. Tools that won't work include pkg_version, portupgrade
and portaudit. A common error is an accidental deletion of PORTEPOCH.
Please fix any errors as soon as possible.
