That version number comes from the portindex. Check the PortIndex files
for your local repositories. Also, check the order of those sources in
sources.conf to make sure the newer version you'd expect is first.

That suggests that your PortIndex might somehow be outdated. Usually the
'portindex' command uses file modification times to figure out which
ports to re-index, so touching the Portfile in question and running
portindex might fix this.

You can also just delete PortIndex and PortIndex.quick entirely, but it
might take a while to re-generate if you have a lot of ports.
