i clearly object this numbering scheme as it gives much trouble to both
ppl and package maintainers. moreover, i would see the 3.x.y branch as
a branch depending on some "old" kind of version numbering and start
with a fresh version scheme from 4.x.y onwards.

coming back to your example, what would you think of:

3.13.5 stable
3.13.5-relp5 (3.80.5 relp)
3.13.5-relp+tcp2 (3.81.2 relp/tcp)

3.14.0 stable relp
3.14.3-tcp3 (3.81.3 relp/tcp unstable)
3.14.0-tls (3.82.0 relp w/ tls unstable)

3.13.6 deprecated
3.14.0 stable relp
3.15.0 relp/tcp stable
3.15.0-tls (3.82.0 relp w/ tls unstable)

this means we're basically working with patches which can be applied on
top of the current stable release. in git you can of course maintain
them as branches and merge as to your liking.

cheers,
