Sorry for the tardy reply.

I'm quite sure that the concept in POCL is right, but I need to find
out why the ports framework of FreeBSD's ports system is bumping the
version number up again. 

I figured out that I have used a self-made tarball of a recent GIT
repositorium (0.10-pre) and not the recent upcoming 0.9-POCL sources.

Oliver
