Ok, so in Perlesque it would be:

v[1-9]\d*(\.\d+){0,2}

And the "classic regular expression equivalent" would be:

v[1-9][0-9]*(\.[0-9]+){0,2}

Therefore, the production rule would be:

     version_id: 'v' V_NONZERO_DIGIT { V_DIGIT } [ '.' V_DIGIT { V_DIGIT } ] 
[ '.' V_DIGIT { V_DIGIT } ]
     V_DIGIT: [0-9]
     V_NONZERO_DIGIT: [1-9]
