At least dpkg understands it correctly:

$ dpkg --compare-versions 5.0.32-7etch6maemo2 lt 5.0.32-7etch6maemo3
&& echo TRUE || echo FALSE
TRUE
$ dpkg --compare-versions 5.0.32-7etch6maemo3 lt 5.0.32-7etch6maemo2
&& echo TRUE || echo FALSE
FALSE

But looking at the error message sent to the extras-cauldron list for
Antonio's package, it seems that the autobuilder is actually detecting
that the package was already accepted, which is not true.

I suppose that if a package is rejected, we can upload it with the
same version number ? Requiring to increment the version on each
failed/rejected upload would seem strange IMHO :)
