After more testing, I found that there were other situations where the
version comparison does not work well.
I ended up replacing the implementation of ptxd_ipkg_rev_smaller() with
something much simpler, albeit dependent on dpkg that seems to work well:
ptxd_ipkg_rev_smaller() {
dpkg --compare-versions $1 lt $2
}
