 > I know. But given that previous updated to this port were still pending,
 I decided to try this trick to draw your attention ;-) It seems to have
 worked.

 I just happened to see your ticket this time.

 > Updated the version field doesn't sound right.

 Yes, it does. Compare with ports graphviz-devel, minivmac-devel, gcc46,
 etc. I've attached a proposed patch. See what you think.

 > This is a port for the beta versions of GNU Prolog.  Currently, beta
 versions for 1.4.0.

 Exactly. A beta version. Not a final version. This version of the port is
 not version 1.4.0. Neither was the previous version of the port which is
 currently in the repository. Version 1.4.0 of this software does not exist
 yet. So the port should not claim to be at that nonexistent version of the
 software.

 > I guess we could add a revision field but there isn't one on the current
 committed portfile.

 The revision line is supposed to be for the maintainer to make changes to
 the packaging which are independent of upstream changes.
