You're correct the Great Unification swallowed up the other ports, and they
exist within the py-ipython portfile now. That one portfile defines several
versions, specifically:
python.versions 24 25 26 27 31 32
When the index of all the ports is run, it finds all these "subports" and
continues to indicate them as usual. The trick you want to do is set the
version and epoch for specific subports (it looks like the 24 and 25 versions
already have differing versions). There are code blocks like those that you
want to use/create.
