Emacs wrong version number?

Hi all,
on 10.1-release I'm installing emacs that should be at version 24.4_3:

Code: 
# pkg install emacs24-24.4_3,3
...
# emacs --version
GNU Emacs 24.4.1

Code: 
# pkg upgrade

# pkg which /usr/local/bin/emacs
/usr/local/bin/emacs was installed by package emacs24-24.4_3,3
So apparently the package is convinced of being 24.4.3, while emacs claims to be 24.4.1, is this normal?
 
The version that's installed is 24.4. The _3,3 has nothing to do with the Emacs version, they're the port revision and the epoch of the port.
