Comment(by ecronin@…):
When I asked about this on -dev a while back the answer was that 0.16.3_0
epoch 0 and 0.16.3_0 epoch 1 are assumed to have identical contents, and
that it is intentional that they won't show as outdated:

So you need to update to a revision that's never been used before for port
to think the epoch 1 version is newer...
I still think this is very confusing behavior, but I don't have the
statistics on how many times epoch is upped and a pure revert happens vs
the Portfiles not being identical for the same version between epochs.
