This is not the purpose of this variable.

This variable is set to a higher version whenever you make important
changes, but DO NOT RAISE the PORT_VERSION_.

It is for users in order to find out if they have to update their
installed version.

If you raise the PORTVERSION, PORTREVISION is set to 0, i.e. removed
from the Makefile.
