The comparison routine that the portupgrade suite uses handles it
correctly:
knu@archon[2]% pkg_version -t 1.7_5 1.7.0.1

I remember Bruce modified my implementation slightly when making
pkg_version aware of PORTREVISION and PORTEPOCH.
Anyway, the right steps we should take are add the above case to
test-pkg_version.sh first and then fix pkg_version so the test suite
passes.
