I've been in that situation, when an upline vendor sends patches, 
forgets to remove PORTREVSION and I don't catch it. It sucks but it is 
what it is.

Due to timing of mirror updates and people running svnup someone may 
have a port with PORTREVISION and when PORTREVISION is bumped to 1 
again said persons will not receive an update. It's not OK. Either 
revert the change or increase PORTEPOCH.
