Comment:

 So as I said above, it is an error for the revision to be non-numeric.

 The MPlayer port's revision was fixed in r27329.

 `port lint` was updated to check for non-numeric revisions (among other
 things) in r29028.

 I checked with

 {{{
 grep -E '^revision[[:space:]]+.*[^[:space:][:digit:]].*$' */*/Portfile
 }}}

 to see if there are any other ports that have non-numeric revisions. The
 only one is libffi. This came about as a result of r32900. Once Paul fixes
 that, we can close this ticket.
