hmm, maybe the last changes to pkg_check-version didn't work quite right
because I'd not expect the warning to trigger here:

$ pkg_check-version xsd-4.1.0 xsd-4.1.0p0
xsd-*- sorted: xsd-4.1.0 xsd-4.1.0p0
WARNING: xsd-4.1.0 and xsd-4.1.0p0 are actually not comparable

looking more into xsd, it seems dead upstream anyway, so perhaps we
don't need to care too much about this, and if that does change, after
all we can set EPOCH if needed.
