Some combined ports have a port number joined by '+'. But most have joined
by just '.'.
Version numbers with '+' look and feel better. But numbers with dots only
sometime look discourage.
E.g. ru-apache+mod_ssl-1.3.27.30.16.2.8.11
Here is 1.3.27 - apache version, 30.16 - russian patch version, 2.8.11 =
mod_ssl version.

Portlint unconditionally interpret '+' sign in version number as fatal
error.

What do you think about standardize number format for combined ports?
